I’ve programmed commercially for about 2 decades and would like to teach programming, but am not interested in people that have to learn it because of some kind of obligation… I’m looking for people with a passion! I figured a good way to start for me is to match up my willingness to teach against people that either would really like to learn, or that would like to take their skills to the next level. You already know my username here is kleinebre; If you manage to figure out my email address (it’s a no-brainer!) feel free to drop me a note. 6 months ago
Borrowed “Sams Teach Yourself C++: One Hour a Day”.
Lesson 1: Getting Started
1. Compilers vs. Interpretters
a. Compilers read code, convert it to object (?); not limited
b. Interpreters are limited
2. Essentials to Object Oriented Programming (OOP)
a. Encapsulation (it is what it is; don’t ask questions; “resistors”)
b. Inheritance/Reuse (work off older stuff instead of restarting)
c. Polymorphism (it’s able to do it no matter what/where it’s at; “many forms”)
3. Development Cycle
a. Edit Source Code
b. Compile (re-edit source code if errors occur, otherwise move on)
c. Link (re-edit source code if errors occur, otherwise move on)
d. Run program (re-edit source code if errors occur, otherwise move on)
e. Done
Hello World Program!
Still working on understanding the compiler section (once I can get a compiler)—looking to getting XCODE from Apple Store. Great first step! 8 months ago
