C/C++ Programming II : Dynamic Memory and File I/O Concepts

Building upon C/C++ Programming I, level II will provide you with a further understanding of the C and C++ programming languages.

Topics include: the run-time environment, advanced I/O features, advanced pointer and array concepts, basic data structures, efficiency and portability, the Standard C Library, and debugging techniques.

Course Highlights: Bitwise operations Executive environment Recursion Advanced array and pointer concepts Storage map equations Dynamic pointer array allocation State diagrams and state machines Sorting and searching Lists, trees and hashings Data representation and portability Locating records within files Variable argument functions Non-local gotos Course Learning Outcomes: Execute concepts acquired in C/C++ Programming I to "real-world" programming situations Understand the diverse applications of C and C++ concepts Possess the ability to apply C and C++ to practical problems Software: Students must have access to program development tools.

Free IDE downloads students commonly use for this program include "Visual Studio Community" for Windows, "Xcode" for macOS, and "Code::Blocks" for Linux, Windows, and macOS.

Course Materials: The instructor will provide students with a pdf copy of his custom course reader to be used for the duration of this course.

There is no other textbook required for this course.

Course Typically Offered: Online in every quarter.

Prerequisite: CSE-40475 C/C++ Programming I: Fundamental Programming Concepts or equivalent knowledge and experience.

Students must have a competent knowledge of basic C and C++ programming concepts as taught in any good C/C++ Programming I course, especially regarding data types and pointers.

Those without this knowledge MUST complete the prerequisite prior to enrolling in this course.

Next Step: After completing this course, consider taking CSE-40477 C/C++ Programming III: Intermediate Programming with Objects to continue learning.
