Welcome Future Coder! Are You Ready To Learn And Start Programming With C++ In 2 Hours?

Bjarne Stroustrup developed C++ at Bell Labs in the year 1979. C++ is a middle level programming language that supports varied platforms like Mac OSX, Unix and Windows, in addition to a few others. This book is an introductory tutorial on C++ and is designed for beginners with little to no background of the programming language.

This book follows a practical and simple approach to C++. We have included executable examples along with screenshots of the execution to help you run the examples for yourself and execute them. This will give you a hands-on experience of C++ programming language as well as its environment, which shall prepare you well for any advanced learning in the same.

Learn, practice, and enjoy your new acquired skills!

Here Is A Preview Of What You'll Learn…
- Overview Of C++
- Variables
- Knowing Databases
- Syntax
- Data Types
- Loop Constructs
- Much, much more!

      we've been through this jv, anything multiplied by 0 is 0

      • +3

        prove it

          @spaceflight:

          That's not proof, that's an example.

          @jv:

          From the real number axioms:
          Let x \in R. Then we have that

          x0 + x0 = 0x + 0x = (0+0)x = 0x = x*0

          by commutativity of multiplication, distributivity, the existence of a neutral element 0 for addition, and the commutativity of multiplication once again. Thus, we have that
          x0 + x0 = x0.
          For clarity, define
          A = x
          0.
          Then we have that
          A + A = A
          A + A + (-A) = A + (-A), by the existence of additive inverses.
          A + (A + (-A)) = (A + (-A)), by associativity of addition
          A + 0 = 0, by the definition of additive inverses
          A = 0, by the definiton of the neutral element 0 of addition which gives us our desired result.

          You have referenced any mathematical axioms.

        • +1

          @jv: Proofs are a fancy way of saying that something agrees with our axioms.

          @bio:

          agrees with our axioms.

          none have been referred to above…

      It's not that unrealistic provided the student is already comfortable with other languages such as Java.

      • +2

        is already comfortable with other languages such as Java.

        or Cobol

      • +8

        No way.

        Other than the syntax similarities there are very few commonalities between Java and C++.

        Unless you mean just to highlight the syntax differences between the two languages.

        But no way you're learning.

        • Manual memory management (new/delete, new[], delete[])
        • Constructors/Destructors
        • const correctness
        • Unions
        • Machine endian difference
        • Multiple inheritance
        • File IO
        • Pointers
        • Threads (posix? win32?)
        • Streams
        • Sockets
        • char *'s
        • operator overloading (the big three etc)
        • compiling, linking, etc
        • STL (that's a year of face smashing on desk learning right there)

        In 2 hours, you'll learn how much you don't know. That's about it.

        • Exactly why 2hrs is so misleading!

        • Yep, that's a semester's worth of lecs and tutes for those who already know java (and C)!

        • +1

          self taught c++ when moving from pascal…. and my first 2 hours was all about this:

          cout << "Hello world";

    • -1

      In two hours you can learn enough to be able to read a C++ program and understand what it is doing.

      But to be able to use all of the features of C++ will take much longer, unless you have a lot of programming experience.

      Some of the concepts in C++ need a lot of thought to get the most from them, for example constructors and destructors. And to fully understand scoping of variables is a big task too. Becoming a master at code re-use will take months to years.

      • Code re-use… hahahhahah C++ code re-use hahahhahah. Oh wait… HAHAHAH

      • months to years

        Our 2 hours with this!

    • -2

      Is that longer than it really takes? I’ve had “C++” on my resume and it impresses people because I only apply for non coding jobs. But I’m worried one day someone is going to ask me what the C is short for 😱

      • you should worry about what is "++"

        • It's an added benefit

    I want my money back if I'm not fluent in two hours.

    Knowing Databases

    Why the heck is this in a C++ primer?

    • +4

      The author must have semi-copypastaed for his free SQL eBook.

    • +2

      They had 45 minutes left over after teaching all there is to know about C++.

  • After 2 hrs, decided my time is more valuable to pay someone else to code.

    • $100 an hour please, for access to our junior coder.

      • +1

        Only if they have 30+ years experience

  • C++ in 2 hours? Be careful, it may cause you some long term metal problem…

    • +5

      "it may cause you some long term metal problem…"

      Like Rust?

      …now lets see how many people understand this multi-level comment :)

      • Rust is great, I looking to get a round tuit to rewrite one my daemons written in C in it.

      • There is ATI's 'close to metal' programming.

  • +1

    Show off a little in your resume. Say you've been programming for 2.5 hours.

  • +1

    2 hours? But I wanna learn it in half an hour!

  • 2Hrs haha, gave me a good chuckle.

    • If it's really that funny, I'll have to download and read it myself.

  • There are a few other reasonable IT books for 0 cost the the moment. Python, GIT, Angular etc …

  • I bought the book "Learning C in 21 days" in 1997. 21 years pass, but I haven't finished it yet.

    Modern software engineering is amazing! C was high-level language in 199x. C++ in 2018 is mid-level :-(

    • on the bright side, you are maximizing ROI, since you are reading 1 chapter a year… :)

  • Well, the timing is correct. I'll be laughing for 2 hours….

    or is this one of those meta books?

    step 1 - read book
    step 2 - outsource C++ project to someone in elancer
    step 3 - ???
    step 4 - profit!

  • I want to learn PowerShell in 2 hours.
