Use C++ to build a crypto trading platform V: final system (Coursera)

Use C++ to build a crypto trading platform V: final system (Coursera)

This course is the fifth 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 fifth course, you will complete the crypto-currency exchange platform. You will learn about modelling real-world entities as a class, the use of static vs non-static functions, and create a wallet class for the final version of the crypto application.
Upon completing the course, you will be able to:

  • Use object interactions to achieve complex functionality through a simple command sequence
  • Explain how to model a familiar real world entity as a class with data and functions
  • Decide when it is appropriate to use static or non-static functions

Course 5 of 5 in the Object Oriented Programming Specialization.

What You Will Learn

  • By the end of the course, you will have a fully functional crypto-currency exchange application.
  • By the end of the course, you will be able to understand the use of static and non-static functions.
  • By the end of the course, you will be able to explain how to model a familiar real-world entity as a class with data and functions.

Syllabus

Object-Oriented Design (Coursera)

This course takes Java beginners to the next level by covering object-oriented analysis and design. You will discover how to create modular, flexible, and reusable software, by applying object-oriented design principles and guidelines. And, you will be able to communicate these designs in a visual notation known as Unified Modelling Language (UML). You will be challenged in the Capstone Project to apply your knowledge of object-oriented design by evolving and documenting the Java codebase for an Android application with corresponding UML documentation.

Object-Oriented Programming Concepts (Coursera)

In Object-Oriented Concepts, we will introduce the core concepts behind modern, object-oriented, programming. We will discuss objects, classes, messaging, inheritance, polymorphism, and more. As with Fundamentals of Programming, we will illustrate the concepts using the Python language, but they will be portable to other object-oriented programming languages.

Introduction to C++ Programming and Unreal (Coursera)

This course is all about starting to learn how to develop video games using the C++ programming language and the Unreal Engine on Windows or Mac. This course assumes you have previous programming experience in some other language. Although we'll start at the very beginning for C++, hardly anybody learns (or teaches) C++ as a first language. Similarly, Unreal Engine is a commercial, industrial strength game engine. With great power comes great ... complexity, so it's important that you have the will to work hard to learn how to use C++ in Unreal Engine.
