C++ Programming for Scientists

Description

The purpose of this course is teach the philosophy and syntax of the C++ programming languages. Special emphasis will be placed on two areas:

1. Improvements to the C programming language found in C++
2. The object-oriented programming features of C++

Since the object-oriented approach to writing code is a new technique for many users, the course offer a description of and rationale for this powerful programming style. In terms of the C++ language in particular, the following topics will be covered: the class data type for object creation and use, the various types of C++ functions, function and operator overloading, inheritance and class hierarchies, the C++ I/O stream, and abstract data types.
