Converting to C++

What Will You Learn Expectations

This website will host a number of resources to help you with converting from basic Java and C# to C++. It will contain tutorials, a learning package and (hopefully one day) videos. Its primary goal is to assist in helping students who are starting a course that focuses on C++ convert from classes they may have done in College or Secondary School that focused on Java or C#.

The package and tutorials will cover the following:

It is expected that you have some knowledge of programming, mostly through Java or C#. If you don't have any experience programming then these tutorials may be slightly difficult to follow. They will cover in brief detail all the aspects of C++ that are taught to first year University students.
If you have no experience with coding in any manner, it will probably be easier to learn C++ from scratch. Check out the Other Resources tab for some online C++ tutorials and recommended books.
