0/3
Variables and Data Types
We'll delve into the world of variables, exploring different data types such as integers, floating-point numbers, characters, and more. You'll understand how to declare, initialize, and manipulate variables in C++.
0/3
Control Structures
You'll master the art of controlling the flow of your programs using conditional statements like if-else and looping constructs such as for, while, and do-while loops.
0/3
Functions
Functions are the building blocks of any program. You'll learn how to declare, define, and call functions in C++, along with concepts like parameter passing and function overloading.
0/4
Arrays
Arrays allow you to work with collections of data. You'll discover how to declare, initialize, and access elements in arrays, paving the way for more complex data structures.

Introduction to C++ Programming
About Lesson
  • Launch the IDE and create a new C++ project or file. Most IDEs offer templates or wizards to assist in setting up a new project.
  • Write a simple “Hello, World!” program, which is a traditional starting point for learning any programming language.
    • For example:

                          #include <iostream>

                            int main() {

                           std::cout << “Hello, World!” << std::endl;

                           return 0; }

  • Save the program file with a meaningful name and the .cpp extension, indicating a C++ source file.
  • Compile the program using the IDE’s build or compile command. This process converts the human-readable source code into machine-executable binary code.
  • After a successful compilation, execute or run the program from within the IDE. This launches the program, and you should see the output displayed in the console window.
  • Take note of any errors or warnings reported by the compiler, and troubleshoot them as necessary. Common issues include syntax errors, missing semicolons, or incorrect header file references.
