Some remarks on the technical structure of the course.
The Course ‘Process’
The course medium is high definition video. I use a combination of Powerpoint, Internet, Visual Studio in combination with audio and video. Each session discusses one logical topic (for example, C++ memory) and in general its duration is between 20 and 30 minutes. The approach is to combine theory and scaled examples to consolidate the learning process.
The examples will be 50% of a general nature (but related to engineering and math applications) and 50% to examples in computational finance.
Normally, you should be able to complete the course in two months, assuming you spend about 15-25 hours per week (lower/upper limits) on the project.
Quizzes and Exercises
Short quizzes are given at the end of each module. They test what you have learned and they should be done before moving on to hands-on exercises in C++.
Some Facts/FAQ
- 35-40 hours recorded videos with audio
- 60 slide shows
- 120 quizzes
- 70 C++ exercises (20% basics, 40% general, 40% finance)
