About the Course

Code and run your first C++ program in minutes without installing anything! This course is designed for learners with no coding experience, providing a solid foundation of not just C++, but core Computer Science topics that can be transferred to other languages. The modules in this course cover printing, operators, iteration (i.e., loops), and selection (i.e., conditionals). To allow for a truly hands-on, self-paced learning experience, this course is video-free. Assignments contain short explanations with images and runnable code examples with suggested edits to explore code examples further, building a deeper understanding by doing. You'll benefit from instant feedback from a variety of assessment items along the way, gently progressing from quick understanding checks (multiple choice, fill in the blank, and un-scrambling code blocks) to small, approachable coding exercises that take minutes instead of hours....

very much interesting and amazing course , it was also a very new and effective way of learning , all my basics of c++ programming are covered in such a less time and more understanding way

An amazing course for beginners! Everything is stated clearly and easy to understand. Best for Hands-on code experience - thanks to Codio. A wonderfully practical course. Must try!

The exercises have drop down menus (WHY AT ALL), that have modified requirements for the examples, such that if you don't read the requirement and you provide a correct answer to the "Try it!" button, then then you click the "Check it" button, you will fail miserably, and you CANNOT retry your answer after you've found the hidden drop down, and found out what they really want you to do. Horrible design and I am not a fan. BTW I have completed several other C and C++ courses, some good, some less so. Again, why have drop downs at all if they're required, and why have them default closed?!?!?!?! Also I for one do NOT like web-based IDE's, or being required to use one. It's slow and bottle necky.

Update:

Upon giving it another try, ran into yet another instance where quiz questions were vague as to what requirements were.

I took the course in order to refresh my knowledge of the language after a long period of not using it. Unfortunately, I found the course to be subpar. It wasted a lot of time on trivial or irrelevant examples that do not reflect how programmers actually work.

The course attempted to teach programming basics using esoteric examples, but this approach came at the cost of neglecting proper code writing skills.

Moreover, the external tool used for code writing was unable to assess similar tasks that had minor differences in code structure

The course jumps from hard things (like loops and arrays) to very simple ones (like data types), however doesn't cover important issues (like limits for data types) and many times does not perform all cases checks in the example code. Turtle examples where the most confusing thing I've seen so far in my studies. The course felt unbalanced: sometime too easy, sometimes way too hard. I didn't enjoy my time in this course.

Hate the structure of this course. I should include that I prefer learning via video and lectures paired with exercises. I found the modules very boring without sufficient explanation of the concepts. Found a better course on Udemy.

Good course but learning without videos is hard plus the exercise have a problem that they cant accept the alternative solutions only those which it is programmed to accept .Icant tell how many times I have problem submittingmy solutions. Eventually,I had to go on youtube to learn and I regret asking for financial aid for this course. I wouldn't have taken this course if I knew this would happen. If you are a visual learner or just can't read much ,this course is not for you.

Couldn't even finish the first week because the page/tool used to do the work was extremely buggy and slow. So disappointed.
