"Effective programming in C++" : Series introduction & objectives (take 3)
Watch Entire Series: http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list...
This series is intended for a serious audience. That is, people who are serious about achieving the goal from which the title of this series is derived.
I would describe the level of the course material as "Intermediate to Advanced" even though the prerequisites, as described in this video, are actually quite minimal. It's not your background that's important here.
The topic here is mostly C++ itself, and then (secondarily) what I've called "Effective programming" in C++ . So the tools used to achieve the first objective will either be built by us during this "journey" so to speak, or will have little and often no relation to the actual language of C++ itself.
But, as I said, the ultimate aim is C++, and by the time we get there, you will have obtained (hopefully) sufficient knowledge such that not a single concept introduced at that point will be unfamiliar.
That's my aim.
About this intro:
============
In this intro here, after finally deciding what this tutorial's name will be (and no, I am sticking with the original idea of 1 series) I lay out a rough sketch of what this series is going to be all about.
