Abstract / Oberview

The programming model of C++ is discussed in some depth. In particular the mechanisms for efficient memory management and generic programming with C++ are covered. Students develop an ability to implement memory-efficient data structures and efficient generic algorithms using C++.

Content in detail: Vectors, pointers and iterators, range for, keyword auto, a class for vectors, subscript-operator, move-construction and iteration. RAII (Resouce Allocation is Initialization) Principle, Templates and Generic Programming, Functors and Lambda Expressions.

Prerequisites: Lecture Series Informatik I 252-0832-00L or equivalent knowledge in programming with C++.

Agenda, Slides and Exercises

This is a plan. No plan survives contact with reality. We will constantly update lecture material before the lecture takes place.
