Ratings and reviews

As someone who did not have much of a C++ background going into the class these lectures slides are developed for (SENG 475), these are excellent slides. I'll likely be referring to these if I need to look back on C++ concepts or learn some topic in depth. Not to mention there are now lecture videos that accompany many of these slides for a great learning experience. Having this be a free resource made available by the professor and being so high-quality is truly a blessing.

tl;dr amazing resource and it's free! Very well put together slides covering many important aspects of c++. I particularly found the content on concurrency very interesting. The slides thoroughly cover the topic and I found them easier to understand than resources I've used in other courses. Michael Adams does a great job putting the resources together for the Advanced Programming Techniques for Robust Efficient Computing (With C++) course at UVic. As a student it is awesome that he provides the resources for free. There is well over 1 course worth of material available that other professors would expect students to drop hundreds of dollars on.

Highly recommended. A thorough and captivating resource for learning about the C++ language. The explanations are detailed enough to understand easily. The topics covered are essential skills needed in careers regarding most areas of software development.
