Use C++ to build a crypto trading platform II: data (Coursera)

Use C++ to build a crypto trading platform II: data (Coursera)

This course is the second of five courses aiming to help you to become confident working in the object-oriented paradigm in the C++ language. This specialisation is for individuals who want to learn about objected oriented programming. It's an all-in-one package that will take you from the very fundamentals of C++, all the way to building a crypto-currency exchange platform.

During the five courses, you will work with the instructor on a single project: a crypto-currency exchange platform. Whilst building the project, you will learn about a range of programming techniques from basic control flow and input/output through to file parsing, object-oriented techniques and user interaction on the console.
In this second course, you will start learning about C++ classes. You will learn about header files, class member functions, and select appropriate data types to represent a dataset in a C++ program.
Upon completing the course, you will be able to:

  • Select appropriate data types to represent a dataset in a C++ program
  • Describe how a class can be used to combine multiple pieces of data into one unit
  • Write a class with functions

Course 2 of 5 in the Object Oriented Programming Specialization.

What You Will Learn

  • By the end of the course, you will be able to select appropriate data types to represent a dataset in a C++ program.
  • By the end of the course, you will be able to understand, design, and write classes with functions in C++.

如果将软件开发人员看作行走江湖的武侠,那么各种软件开发技术就是武侠赖以傍身的武术秘籍。有的秘籍以易学灵巧见长,练习者很快掌握,并有立竿见影的功效,但失之厚重持久;有的秘籍初学乍练顿显困难,虽冥思苦解仍不得要领,需坚持不断的内功修炼方成正果,却是成为武林大侠必备的至宝。本课程有些类似于后者。
