    Study Notes

    Computer Program

    • A sequence of instructions that a computer can execute is called a computer program or software
    • Instructions are written in a programming language
    • An algorithm is a finite, deterministic, and effective problem-solving method that is used to solve a bunch of problems, or to perform a computation

    C++ as a First Language

    • C++ serves as a standard for judging other languages
    • It facilitates full control over memory
    • C++ is one of the fastest programming languages in terms of execution
    • C++ promotes structured and disciplined program design

    Levels of Programming

    • Programming is categorized into three levels:
      • High-level
      • Middle-level
      • Low-level

    Compiler and Linker

    • A compiler is a translator program that converts high-level programming languages into machine language (object code).
    • A linker links the object code with missing function code to produce an executable program.

    Types of Programming

    • Procedure-Oriented Programming (POP) is based on step-by-step instructions, using linear programming
    • Object-Oriented Programming (OOP) is based on objects, and will be covered in a separate course

    IDE and Books

    • Recommended IDE's:
      • Visual Studio 2019
      • Code::Blocks or Dev C++
      • Xcode or Netbeans
    • Useful Books:
      • Deitel P.J. and Deitel H.M. 2017. C++ How to Program, 10th global edition
      • Herbert Schildt. 2003. The Complete Reference C++, 4th edition
