TDIU01	Programming in C++, basic course, 6 ECTS credits. /Programmering i C++ g.k./ For: DI EL
	Prel. scheduled hours: 87 Rec. self-study hours: 73
	Area of Education: Technology Main field of studies: Computer Engineering
	Advancement level (G1, G2, A): G1
	Aim: This course offer training in using a unix-based computer system, basic knowledge and skills for developing small computer programs, and basic knowledge of the programming language C++. Upon completion of this course the student should be able to: Design programmable solutions for given problems and implement them in the programming language C++. Use a computer system to work with programs and texts, and also to find information.
	Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered) Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.
	Supplementary courses: Courses where basic knowledge and skills in programming is required.
	Organisation: The course is arranged as a series of lectures, lessons and programming exercises. Self-study hours must be set aside for literature studies and programming. The course runs over the entire autumn semester.
	Course contents: Lectures, lessons and programming exercises covers the following: Basic programming development methodology, based on step-wise refinement. Procedural programming in C++, which means designing programs mainly based on variables, constants, declarations, expressions, statements, functions and components from the C++ standard library. Fundamental data types (integer, floating-point, boolean, character and string types), fundamental data structures (e.g. the standard container vector), dynamic memory allocation (pointers) and dynamic data structures (linked lists). Basic use of the C++ Standard library (the streams library for inout and output, character and string handling, standard functions).
