Description

The emphasis on learning C++ from an interview perspective leads to a reinventing wheel syndrome amongst developers. The container library usage has become a norm thanks to C++11. But using the algorithms library remains a challenge.

Purpose

• Assist you in becoming self sufficient as a C++ programmer.

• Convince you about thinking algorithms first.

• Present enough realistic examples for you to get the prototyping habit in muscle memory.

• No take up months of your time to explain something you can learn and use in matter of hours!

Concerns

• Since interviews ask for search and sort algorithms, most developers believe they always have to implement them from scratch, even in production! 

• The reinvention may leads to bugs.

• Every time a new developer has to read the code, they need to reinterpret the algorithm from scratch.

• Without up to date comments and documentation the code can easily be misinterpreted

• A reinvented algorithm cannot benefit from the upgrades to the language. The ranges library is availble but homegrown implementations cannot benefit from it without significant engineering efforts.

• Testing overage with corner cases of homegrown reimplementations is hard to maintain.

How to use the course?

• Every question presents a use case.

• Read the options and try to create minimal dummy data to test with.

• Plugin all options and verify if your selected option works.

• Choose the answer.

• Read the “Review Questions” section at the end of each practice test to get more information and references.
