Complete C++ Programming Tutorial for Beginners
About This Course
Start your C++ programming journey with this beginner-friendly, comprehensive tutorial. Learn the essential concepts of C++ and build a strong foundation for problem-solving, object-oriented programming, and Data Structures & Algorithms (DSA). The course covers programming fundamentals, variables, data types, conditionals, loops, pattern printing, functions, pointers, recursion, arrays, 2D arrays, and strings. These concepts will help you understand how programs process data and solve practical problems. After completing the lecture, apply your knowledge by building a functional **Student Expense & Budget Tracker**. Develop the core logic using C++, organize your code with functions and suitable data structures, and create a user-friendly interface for interacting with the application. **Learning Path:** Watch the course → Practice C++ concepts → Build the project → Publish your code on GitHub → Deploy a working application → Submit for review. **Certification:** Submit both your GitHub repository URL and live deployment URL. Your certificate will be issued after your project is reviewed and approved by the SkillRock team.
What You Will Learn
C++ Beginner Project — Student Expense & Budget Tracker
Build a Student Expense & Budget Tracker that helps students manage their daily spending. Users should be able to add expenses, categorize transactions, set a budget, calculate total spending, and view their remaining balance. Implement the core business logic using C++. Apply variables, conditional statements, loops, functions, strings, and arrays or vectors as appropriate. You may use HTML, CSS, and JavaScript for the frontend, but your submission must clearly demonstrate the use of C++ in the project. Publish your source code on GitHub and deploy a working application that reviewers can access online. Submit both URLs through SkillRock. Important: A static webpage alone is not sufficient. Your deployed application must demonstrate working expense-tracking functionality, and your repository must explain how the C++ logic is implemented or connected to the application.
Mandatory Features To Build:
- Add an expense with a name, amount, category, and date.
- Display all recorded expenses in a readable list.
- Calculate the total amount spent.
- Allow users to set a budget and calculate the remaining balance.
- Calculate spending by category.
- Allow users to delete an expense.
- Validate inputs and reject invalid amounts or empty expense names.
- Provide a clear, responsive user interface.
- Include sample data or instructions for testing the application.
- Implement and document the core business logic in C++.
- Publish the complete source code in a GitHub repository.
- Deploy a functional application and provide its live URL.
