Course Overview

An Introduction to Programming through C++ certification course is an undergraduate-level study. The training is based on computers and program engineering that teaches its learners problem solving using C++. It covers the basics of programming notions and arithmetic applications. Students will know the design and standard libraries of the C++ programming language.

Spread across 12-weeks of learning, An Introduction to Programming through C++ certification syllabus exposes learners to concepts such as dynamic memory allocation, recursive algorithms, and drawings. It also involves a discussion on a rudimentary graphics system. Using this safer version of computer language, candidates can design programs fast with low-level features.

Developed by the Indian Institute of Technology, Kanpur, learners can pursue the course for free. However, for An Introduction to Programming through C++ certification, students need to sit for a scheduled examination by paying the necessary fee. Candidates need to secure an average combined score in course assignments and final examination for the e-certificate.
