Students will learn the differences between low-level and high-level languages. They will also learn how to use C++ to program variables, constants, control structures, value-returning and void functions, selection structures, loops, and arrays. Students will learn how to build, execute, and debug a C++ program, as well as how to implement sequential access files and access data from a database.
This web design course also covers object-oriented programming concepts, such as classes and objects. The manual is designed for quick scanning in the classroom and filled with interactive exercises that help ensure student success.
-
Identify the types of hardware and software and the types of programming languages.
-
Distinguish between the sequence, selection, and repetition structures and write algorithms to implement control structures.
-
Identify problem-solving techniques and analyze, plan, and desk-check an algorithm.
-
Distinguish between a variable, a named constant, and a literal constant, use variables to store data in memory and interact with a user by using input and output methods.
-
Apply programming skills to resolve a case study and build an application in Visual Studio .NET.
-
Describe value returning functions and implement value returning functions.
-
Define void functions and pass variables by reference to a function and use void functions in resolving a case study.
-
Describe the features of selection structure and implement selection structure in a case study.
