C/C++ Computer programming -- Help with upcoming C++ exam

Click For Summary
An undergraduate Physics student is preparing for an upcoming C++ programming exam and seeks guidance on essential topics to study. The discussion highlights the challenges of addressing such a broad question without specific details. Participants suggest focusing on particular study questions and utilizing the Homework Help forums for targeted assistance. They emphasize the importance of using code tags for clarity when posting code. C++ is noted for its applications in physics, particularly in simulations, data analysis, and experimental processes. Due to the general nature of the inquiry, participants recommend consulting online tutorials and reviewing the exam syllabus for more structured preparation. The conversation concludes with the acknowledgment that the initial question lacks the specificity needed for a comprehensive response.

I want to know about C++ programming
Hi, I am an undergraduate Physics student and i have an exam on c++ programming next monday, what are the basic things I have to know in order to perform well in the exam? And how is c++ applied in physics?

I'm not sure we can be of much help on such a general question about C++. If you have specific study questions that you need help with, post in the Homework Help forums, and show your best effort to figure out the problem. Also please be sure to use "code tags" to wrap your code posts -- it helps readability a lot. Put this around your code (without the spaces):

[ code=C ]

[ /code ]
And how is c++ applied in physics?
It is applied pretty much as any programming language. It is used for simulations and data analysis and running experiments, etc.

Somehow it seems to me that you have no prior knowledge in C++. In that case, you might want to have a look at this online tutorial:
https://www.javatpoint.com/cpp-tutorialIt's impossible for us to mention all the basics of the language. It's better if you read from the above site.

You have to know where to go and at what time to take the exam. For other things it is a bit late ...

You might browse the syllabus and maybe even post it here ...

Thread closed. The question is too vague for us to be able to provide a meaningful answer.
