MCQ PDF
Cou
Programming in C++ offers a comprehensive introduction to one of the most widely

used programming languages in software development. The course covers the

fundamentals of C++ syntax, including variables, data types, control structures,

functions, and object-oriented programming concepts such as classes, inheritance,

polymorphism, and encapsulation. Students will develop the ability to design and

implement efficient, maintainable, and robust code by working through real-world

examples and hands-on projects. Additionally, the course explores advanced topics

such as memory management, templates, and the Standard Template Library (STL),

equipping students with both theoretical knowledge and practical skills to tackle

complex programming challenges in C++.
