C++ Tutorial for Beginners - Learn C++ in 1 Hour
Programming with Mosh
C++ is one of the most popular programming languages in the world
and is used by large companies and government agencies like Adobe,
Google, Microsoft, Netflix and NASA for building performance critical
applications such as video games, device drivers, web browsers, servers
and operating systems. While C++ may seem intimidating to some, you
don't need to learn all of it in order to write substantial programs. In
this course we'll explore major functionalities in the standard library, a
collection of pre-written code that provides functionality that many
applications require. We'll also be using an Integrated Development
Environment (IDE) which includes an editor for writing code. To get
started, select the free version of Clion and head over to
jetbrains.com/clion/download to download it - then you can activate
your license or use one of the free alternatives.
C++ is a case sensitive language, which means it is sensitive to
uppercase and lowercase letters; so make sure to type exactly as shown.
The main function returns an integer, which is a whole number like 0, 1,
2, 3 and so on; within the braces we have written the code for this
function. The value that this function returns tells the operating system
if our program terminated successfully or not. The standard library has
different files each serving a purpose; as you go through the course you
will learn more about the other files in the standard library. To create a
console application, which is easier for people learning a new language,
remember patience is the first skill of a good programmer; if your code
does not get compiled pay close attention to this video. Once you
understand the basics of C++ you will be ready to move on to writing
applications with a graphical user interface if that is what you want.
The ultimate C++ course is the first part of my complete C++ series.
Each part is about three to four hours long, so you can easily complete
it in a day or two. By the end of this series, you will have a solid
understanding of C++ and you'll be ready to apply it in real life - for
example, if you want to build games with Unreal Engine, a popular
gaming engine. To declare a variable in C++, first we have to specify the
type of data we want to store, then give our variable a proper
