C++ Programming - Learning Journey

Welcome to my C++ Programming repository! This repo contains the code I wrote while learning C++ for the first time. It serves as a personal reference and may help others who are just starting out as well.

📚 Topics Covered

• Basic Syntax: Variables, Data Types, Operators, and Control Flow (if, for, while)
• Functions: Declaration, Definition, and Recursion
• Pointers & References: Memory addresses and pointer arithmetic
• Object-Oriented Programming (OOP): Classes, Objects, Inheritance, Polymorphism, Encapsulation
• File Input/Output (I/O): Reading from and writing to files using fstream
• Standard Template Library (STL): Vectors, Maps, Sets, Pairs, and Algorithms
• Basic Algorithms: Searching, Sorting, etc.

🧑‍💻 Usage

To run any of the C++ programs in this repo:

1. Clone the repo:

   git clone https://github.com/schak04/cpp-learning-journey.git

2. Navigate into the project folder:

   cd cpp-learning-journey

3. Compile and run a program (example for hello.cpp):

   g++ hello.cpp -o hello
   ./hello

📝 Files

Each .cpp file is named based on the concept it demonstrates.

🔄 Ongoing Progress

This repository is a work in progress. I will continue to add more code and examples as I explore new C++ concepts, projects, and challenges. Stay tuned for more updates!
