Qualification outcome
Areas of Competence: Knowledge and Understanding; Use, application and generation of knowledge; Communication and cooperation; Scientific self-understanding / professionalism.
Students will acquire/deepen the following competences:
Technical: Students who successfully complete this course will
have a general understanding of programming according to the
standards C++11 and beyond. They will deepen their C++ skills by
learning how
- to avoid programing and coding errors
- to make programming more economical by generating and using
reusable code
- to optimize their programs
Social: Knowledge will be exercised by lab projects, which are
carried out in teams. Results will be presented by the group.
Personal: Students will be able to assess their own programming
skills at the beginning of the course relative to its end. Due to the
exposure to the vastness of C++(11) they will have a more realistic
perspective on their own programming skills and what is missing to
become an expert (specialization).
Content information
- Components being added to the language and the Standard-Library by the
standards pursuing C++11.
- Differences in programming: pre- vs. post-C++11
- Errorless code: Categories of typical (often made) mistakes, Tools to detect
those (linter, sanitizers, setup of static tests)
- Reusable code: Benefits and pitfalls of code-reuse, Differences between
reusable and application-specific code, Static and dynamic libraries, Sources of
existing libraries, Setting up of own libraries
- Optimizing code: Optimization for space vs speed, Necessity of
measurement; 80/20-rule, data structures, algorithms and code patterns
which may benefit most, Tools for measurement (timers and profilers)
