An Introduction to the Imperative Part of C++

An Introduction to the Imperative Part of C++

These lecture notes are designed for an introductory course on programming, using the imperative core of C++, and given to MSc (Computing Science) students at Imperial College London at the very beginning of their course. The students attend an intensive series of lectures and laboratory sessions over two weeks, carrying out lab work using the GNU g++ compiler on PCs running a flavour of UNIX. Since the course is intended for graduates from disciplines other than Computer Science, very little previous programming experience is assumed. This note covers the following topics: introducing C++,  ANSI/ISO C, the C++ programming environment in unix, an example C++ program, very simple input output and assignment, simple flow of control, preliminary remarks about program style, variables types and expressions, identifiers, data types, integers, real numbers, type casting, characters, strings, user defined data types,etc..
