C++

This subject covers the fundamental principles of computer programming, with an emphasis on problem solving strategies using structured programming techniques.

The C++ programming language, which is widely used and forms the syntactical basis for object-oriented languages such as C#, Objective-C, and Java, is used to introduce problem analysis, algorithm design, and program implementation.
