Kassia Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 (edited) Looking for a thorough C++ class online or even a good book with projects/assignments Edited May 13, 2019 by Kassia 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanny Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Have you considered taking a MOOC course? Free or paid? There are a lot of excellent MOOC courses available, on a huge variety of subjects. I googled for you. This blurb was at the top: C++ MOOCs and Free Online Courses C++ For C Programmers, Part A (Coursera) ... C++ For C Programmers, Part B (Coursera) ... C++程序设计 (Coursera) ... Introduction à la programmation orientée objet (en C++) (Coursera) ... Initiation à la programmation (en C++) (Coursera) ... Introduction to C++ (edX) ... Programming Basics (edX) ... Implementation of Data Structures (edX) https://www.mooc-list.com/tags/c-1 I am signed up on Coursera and on Canvas.net but there are other platforms you should also look into. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RootAnn Posted May 13, 2019 Share Posted May 13, 2019 Has she already taken Java or Python? FundaFunda has a one semester Python class. They run it in the summer, but I think it is different in the summer?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, but I was hoping to get recommendations from someone who has taken a course/gone through a book. 25 minutes ago, RootAnn said: Has she already taken Java or Python?

She wants to take C++ to get out of a prerequisite for when she starts college next year. She doesn't need credit for the class but will have to pass a proficiency test to get into the class she wants to start in. She's done some C++ on her own but wants something more thorough so that she doesn't move on to the next class without a good foundation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mumto2 Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 My Dd needed proof also and did the C++ at Saylor. You receive a free certificate. I think you may be able to pay for a ptoctured final and receive ACE credit. https://learn.saylor.org/course/index.php?categoryid=9 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She doesn't need proof, just the knowledge to get out of the prerequisite class when she starts at the university. I'm not familiar with Saylor - how much would the class be? I couldn't find a price on the website. Thank you for the info and the link! ETA - I think the courses are free? That's amazing!

I believe there are usually multiple options for each section. My kids have found Saylor really useful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
