Exercises
While the previous iterations of this course leveraged weekly exercise sheets, this one does not. However, I would like to keep these exercises around as they support the lecture and explore certain auxiliary topics relevant to C++. You are encouraged to solve (or at least think about) these exercises and participate in the discussions during the stream. You will not submit a solution as these exercises are optional, but feel free to ask questions when running into problems.
The exercises folder will be updated throughout the semester.
C++ Related Questions
