After completing OOP Using C++: Week 1 the user should be able to:

	Use data types variables and constants
	Use operators to manipulate C++ expressions
	Do advanced programming with functions
	Use statements and loops to control program flow
	Use classes and objects
	Enter compile and link C++ programs

Day 1: Getting Started
Discusses why C++ is the emerging standard.Identifies the steps to develop a C++ program.Explains how to enter compile and link a C++ program.

Day 2: The Parts of a C++ Program
Analyzes the parts of a C++ program.Demonstrates how the parts work together.Examines what a function is and what it does.

Day 3: Variables and Constants
Covers how to declare and define variables and constants.Shows how to assign values to variables and manipulate those values.Demonstrates how to write the value of a variable to the screen.

Day 4: Expressions and Statements
Describes what statements blocks and expressions are.Shows how to branch code based on conditions.Discusses what truth is and how to act on it.

Day 5: Functions
Examines what a function is and what its parts are.Illustrates how to declare and define functions pass parameters into functions and return a value from a function.

Day 6: Basic Classes
Explains what classes and objects are.Demonstrates how to define a new class and create objects of that class.Discusses what member functions and member data are.Describes what constructors are and how to use them.

Day 7: More Program Flow
Explains what loops are and how they are used.Shows how to build various loops.Presents an alternative to deeply-nested if/else statements.

Week 1 in Review
Presents a program that uses the skills learned during the week.

Reference
Provides reference tables for operator precedence C++ keywords and binary and hexadecimal.Lists example programs.
