Originally delivered at University of Birmingham
Based upon (but not directly derived from) work by Matthew Collins, which was in turn based upon work by Nick Webber.
This course uses C++14 as the standard it presents. Concepts from C and older standards are presented at the end but modern practices and containers, such as references and std::array, are presented in place of out moded concepts such as pointers and C arrays.
This a re-design of the delivery of the module, begun in week 14 of the 20-week course in academic year 2019/2020.
The original 3 hours slot format of 1hr lecture/2hr lab session wasn't working too well for me or the students so I started this as a trial alternative approach.
Install the pre-requisites with bundle install
(You may need to install zlib1g-dev on Debian to build some of the native extensions.)
Then run with bundle exec jekyll serve
