Hi there fellow Cpp-affectionates!
A lot has happened after my last in-detail post about the syllabus tree. And there is a lot in planning for the tree and the track in general. Let’s get to it.
What has happened with the syllabus?
There are currently 15 concepts in the tree:
- basics
- booleans
- classes
- comparisons
- enums*
- headers**
- if-statements
- includes
- loops
- namespaces
- numbers
- references
- strings
- switch*
- vector-arrays
* The Switch and Enums concepts are getting an exercise as we speak (PR is waiting for final comments).
** The Headers exercise needs a good chunk of my time so, I can think about the test architecture.
What will (probably) happen in the syllabus tree?
On my non-definite list of future concepts are the following items:
- Functions
- STL Containers
- For-each loops
- Iterators
- Advanced Classes
- Copy and Move
- Pointers
- Smart Pointers
- Exceptions
- Polymorphism
- Templates
- Input/Output
- Lambdas
- constexpr
- C-Style Strings / string_view
What tasks are there apart from the tree?
There are also the following task, that would make the track better:
- Implement some of the 70 unimplemented practice exercises
- build an analyzer
- build a representer
- upgrade the test runner from v2 to v3
I will open another thread for people looking to help with the tree or the track in general.
