- (code CPP11SEM)
The goal of this intensive one-day seminar is to introduce the most important features in the most recent version of the C++ programming language, how it improves the current version of the language and how these new features can have a positive impact on developer productivity and the flexibility of computational finance applications.
The course also discusses how the new features can be applied to help create efficient and maintainable software systems.
For whom it this Course: Course Benefits
At the end of this course you will appreciate the applicability of C++ 11 to computational finance. Thus, the course is for all finance people who are directly and indirectly involved with the creation, maintenance and extension of applications in computational finance, for example, front-office and middle-office analysts and developers. The seminar is also suitable for IT developers who develop in C++.
The benefits of the course are:
-
Get a complete overview of C++ 11 in one day; code demos
-
Using C++ 11 in applications
-
How C++ 11 support multi-paradigm programming models
-
