1. Computer Terms Review from what language did C++ originate?
what is an input, output device?
what is main memory, memory location, memory address?
what is a program, data?
what is natural language, high-level language, machine language
what is a compiler, linker, library?
what is source/object/executable code?
what are syntax/semantic/stylistic rules? 1

2. The Fundamentals of C++ First programs Development Environment2

3. Program Organization Program structure First programs hello, world
calculating the area of a rectangle
Microsoft Visual Studio
Subversion 3

4. Programming Cycle
A program written in human-readable from is called source program - extension - .cpp (helloworld.cpp)
A compiler is applied to the source program to translate it into a form the machine understands - we use Microsoft’s Visual C++ compiler (part of Microsoft’s Visual Studio)
The compiler produces object code - direct translation of the source program - extension o. (helloworld.o).
The compiler then calls the linker which adds all other necessary parts for the program to run on a computer and produces executable code
specially produced executables can be traced (more on that later) 4

5. First Program: helloWorld.cpp
// displays a greeting
// Michael Rothstein
// 1/12/2014
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
cout << "Hello, World!" << endl; }
preprocessor
directive
comments
function named main() indicates start of program
output
statement

6. Visual Studio
Microsoft Visual Studio (MSVS) is an integrated development environment (IDE) for writing, debugging, testing and running programs, it supports multiple languages
C++ is one of the supported languages
MSVS basic concepts
console application (command line application, Win32) - input/output go to console
project - a set of files that are developed jointly. A project compiles into a single executable
solution – a set of related projects 6

7. Subversion
subversion – version control software used by programmers for team code development. We use for lab submission and grading
has a centralized code repository
C++ projects can be: added to repository, checked out and committed
repository is accessible from the web  method to verify submission
TortoiseSVN – subversion client integrated into Windows Explorer 7
