- Develop a comprehensive C++ application that integrates multiple concepts learned throughout the course. Possible project ideas include:
- A simple banking system with account management and transaction processing.
- A library management system with book tracking and user management.
- A basic game (e.g., Tic-Tac-Toe, Snake) demonstrating OOP and STL usage.
- A file encryption/decryption tool utilizing modern C++ features.
- Develop a comprehensive C++ application that integrates multiple concepts learned throughout the course. Possible project ideas include:
- Final Presentation: Present the project to peers and instructors, showcasing design decisions, code structure, and functionality.
By the end of this 4-month bootcamp, students will have a deep understanding of C++ programming, transitioning smoothly from C to C++ with a strong grasp of object-oriented principles, advanced features, and the Standard Template Library (STL). Graduates will be well-prepared for roles such as C++ Developer, Software Engineer, Systems Programmer, Game Developer, and Embedded Systems Developer.
