About

I will cover the basics of C++ including syntax, program structure standard libraries and, some special features of the language. When you have completed this series you should be able to create and compile simple C++ program, and even edit more sophisticated C++ programs. I eventually cover make systems like cmake, which are needed to compile programs with foreign libraries. C++ is an advanced programming language with a steep learning curve so be prepared for a challenge, but if you can master it other languages will seam easy and even limited.

View Profile

I am a home schooled student in the junior year of high school living in Florida. My primary interests are in engineering, and I would like to provide assistance with STEM related subjects such as math and computer programming. For fun I enjoy participating in space and physics related citizen science projects on zooniverse.com, researching random technologies and subjects into the ground on the internet, learning Mandarin Chinese, and programming.
