Type of course

The course may be taken as a single subject.

Course contents

The course focuses on advanced concepts and techniques necessary for development of simulator software and computer games using the C++ programming language.

The course aims at solving problems by programming with emphasis on numerical stability, type safety, multi-threading, concurrency, efficient data structures and modularization. Some fundamental C++ programming topics include:

The topics of basic geometry, affine space, projective space and physically accurate simulations are encountered through the mandatory project task.
