Product Code: clgc03 Time: 3.0 hour(s) CEUs: Available

Summary:

This course begins with advanced pointer topics and moves on to the use of disk files for data storage and retrieval. It also covers advanced function topics and explores the function library in more detail. The week ends with a discussion of memory management header files and preprocessor directives. Sample listings complete with sample output and an analysis of code illustrate the topics of the day.

Objectives:

After completing this course, students will be able to:
  • Use pointers in more complex ways
  • Use disk files and perform file management functions
  • Use string manipulation, math, time, and error-handling functions
  • Get more from functions through the interaction of pointers and functions
  • Allocate, reallocate and free memory at runtime
  • Use type casts with variables and pointers
  • Access arguments passed to the program on the command line
  • Manipulate individual bits
  • Apply the principles of modular programming
  • Use preprocessor directives
