Letter to students

This course and this student manual reflect a collective effort by your constructor, the Vietnam Education Foundation, The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) Open Courseware Project and faculty colleagues within Vietnam and the United States who served as reviewers of drafts of this student manual. This course is an important component of our academic program. Although it has been offered for more than three years, this latest version represents an attempt to expand the ranges of sources of information and instruction so that the course continues to be up-to-date and the methods well suited to what is to be learned.

You will be asked from time to time to offer feedback on how the student manual is working and how the course is progressing. Your comments will inform the development team about what is working and what requires attention. Our goal is to help you learn what is important about this particular field and to eventually succeed as a professional applying what you learn in this course.

Thank you for your cooperation. I hope you enjoy the course.

Course description

This course is a comprehensive introductory course that is intended for students who have no background in computer programming. This course provides basic knowledge and skills on programming with two important programming paradigms: structured programming and object-oriented programming. The course covers structured programming paradigm in depth and introduces just some basics on object-oriented programming. The programming language used in this programming course is C++.

Course objectives

Upon successful completion, students will be able to:

  1. Design algorithmic solutions to problems.
  2. Translate a specified algorithm into correct self-documented C++ code using generally accepted programming style. In accomplishing this translation, the student shall be able to apply the structured programming mechanisms of C++ including sequence, selection, iteration, recursion, pointers and arrays.
  3. Acquire an understanding of basic object-oriented concepts and the issues involved in effective class design.
  4. Write C++ programs that use:
    • arrays
    • structures
    • pointers
    • object-oriented concepts such as information hiding, constructors, destructors, inheritance.
