Introduction to C++

This course guides learners through the essentials of C++ programming. Starting with an overview and setup, students explore data structures using the Standard Template Library (STL), delving into functions and modular programming as well as Object-Oriented Programming (OOP). The course introduces fundamental algorithms through a hands-on search implementation, culminating in a practical project: building a Route Planner using OpenStreetMap. By the end, participants will be equipped with the skills to design and develop efficient C++ applications.
