The goal of the course is to provide students with no prior experience in C++ with an introduction to the basics, as well as the resources and guidance to enable them to pursue self-study on their own time after IAP. The course will provide some context as to how C++ is used in practice and what employers would expect of someone who can program in C++. It is organized by the Quant Finance Club at Sloan and examples from Finance will be used wherever possible. Tracy Licklider is an independent software projects advice & rescue consultant. He mainly consults on or directly does rescue of projects in trouble -- one of the fastest growing segments of the computer software industry.
