C++ and Object-Oriented Programming

( SL-240B )


     Course DescriptionBack To Top

C++ and Object-Oriented Programming teaches students how to program object-oriented applications using the C++ programming language. It is designed for experienced C programmers who will be developing object-oriented applications using C++ or porting existing C applications to C++. This course uses the Sun Visual Workshop[tm] C++ 5.0 compiler or compatible version.
