Advanced C Programming: Pointers and Memory management Course

What you’ll learn

Advanced C Programming: Pointers and Memory management Course

• Comprehension of the importance of pointers in the current technologies.
• The concept behind pointers and how to do operations with them.
• Understand how to handle pointers for dynamic memory allocation.
• Management of multidimensional arrays, vectors, and lists, expanding the knowledge of pointers.
• Understand Indirection and its functionality.
• Practice with different examples of these concepts and functionalities.
• Create and read binary files with the perspective of pointers.
• Identify the main issues of pointers to be careful and consider for your program.

HARD PREREQUISITES / KNOWLEDGE YOU ARE ASSUMED TO HAVE:

· Basic understanding of C Programming. (Variable types, Functions, Loops, output/input of strings, arrays, and lists)

· Object-oriented programming

TIPS (for getting through the course):

· Write down some definitions, if you need to.

· Write code yourself, don’t just sit there and look at my code.

· Try to explore each topic by yourself doing variations to the examples.

· Rely on web documentation of C/C++ for functions or details which are unclear for you, right after you’ve seen it, thus you avoid to accumulate doubts.

WHAT ORDER SHOULD I TAKE YOUR COURSES IN?:

· Try to follow the usual order of each section, since the level of the exercises increases progressively.

Who this course is for:

· Understand the different functionalities of pointers and memory management in C/C++ programming language.

· Students studying basic programming or object-oriented programming with basic knowledge of C/C++.

· Professionals who want to apply pointers to optimize some program or application of certain system.

· Entrepreneurs who want to apply pointers to optimize some program or application of certain system.

· Students in computer science who want to learn more about pointers and memory management.
