Abstract:

In this course the language C++ is taught by example. High level skeleton code will be used to both learn how to develop your computer program in C++, and acquire the necessary skills to adapt basic multimedia programs to your own needs. Most of the important areas in multimedia programming: image, sound, video, networking, and user input methods will be studied in this way.

Requirements: C, C++

Grading (4 ECTS): There will be no final exam for this course. The grade is completely determined by the assignments that students have to do in class and during the course. It is necessary to be at every class. If you can not be there, you must contact Dr. Bakker (erwin@liacs.nl) before the class!
