Teaching Materials

Collection of (some of) my C++ Learning & Teaching Materials

I aimed at providing a broad, yet not too shallow overview of the C++ programming language (originally for people with a beginner level Java or Python background). If you find any bug please drop me an e-mail. The stuff is for personal use only and may not be used in a commercial context without my permission.
