Learn C++ Programming -Beginner to Advance- Deep Dive in C++ (Udemy.com)
Classroom and Hands-on sessions- Features of C++ 11 , Exception Handling and STL - for Both Academics and Industry
Created by: Abdul Bari
Last updated May 2026
Our take
Based on the ratings of 31,926 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in May 2026. No course pays to be reviewed.
This is a classroom-style C++ course from Abdul Bari, the instructor behind the well-known Algorithms YouTube channel. Every topic gets a whiteboard explanation first, then a practical demo, and the syllabus runs from data types and loops through pointers, classes, inheritance, polymorphism, templates, exception handling, STL and a short C++11 section. There are 280 lectures, 65 quizzes and 48 coding exercises across about 30 hours. It assumes no programming background, and the audience notes say it covers more than a typical university syllabus. That is exactly who it suits: students and self-taught beginners who want the why, not just the syntax.
Reviewers consistently praise the explanations. One student working in the semiconductor industry said other resources felt disconnected from topic to topic and this course finally made C++ click. Another points to the real-world examples as the thing that makes concepts stick. The complaints are small but real. One non-native listener found the pronunciation a little hard to follow but still learned without trouble. A 3-star review notes it stays on fundamentals and never reaches advanced topics like concurrency. A 1-star review says the built-in code editor is rigid and marked correct code wrong over a variable name, and another felt the practice questions cover only a small slice.
At 4.6 from nearly 32,000 reviews and about 110,000 students, it is clearly well liked, and the May 2026 update keeps it current. It shares our C++ list with Beginning C++ Programming and C++ Tutorial for Complete Beginners, and it stops well short of the game-engine work in the Unreal courses beside it. If you want to understand C++ deeply enough for exams or interviews rather than ship a project fast, this is the one we would pick.
Pros
- Every topic is explained on a whiteboard first, then demoed in code, so concepts land before syntax.
- 65 section quizzes and 48 coding exercises build practice into nearly every section.
- Real-world examples for each topic, which one reviewer says make concepts easier to remember.
- Updated in May 2026 and rated 4.6 across nearly 32,000 reviews.
Cons
- Stays on fundamentals; no concurrency, C++17/20 or large project work beyond a short banking system.
- The in-browser coding exercise checker is rigid and can mark correct code as wrong.
- One reviewer found the instructor's pronunciation a little hard to follow at first.
Abdul Bari is just too great when it comes to explaining difficult concepts in a very lucid manner.
Marked All Levels, but really a from-zero course; experienced C++ developers will only get a refresher on OOP concepts.
What you will learn
- Learn Basic concepts of Programming C++, OOPs,Exception Handling, STL, Features of C++ 11
- Learn Object-Oriented Programming Design Concept in C++ Perfectly with Examples
- Learn How to Develop an Application (Student Project in C++ )

The IDE style code editor really bad, its not dynamic, the code is correct but because of me writing working hours instead of just working it said my code is wrong
By Ranjit Kumar on 8/27/2026
I'm working in Semiconductor Industry and I was trying to learn C++ from long time, tried multiple resource but always felt disconnected with one topic to other. when I started this course I just loved it the way you explain sir.... previously python was my favorite programing language now C++ :)

The author has taken time to put together a fairly balanced and unique pedagogical approach. Kudos, and I look forward to consuming more material.

By SALAI SATHIYA SURIYAN . G on 5/16/2026
Great!! Clear explanations and implementations. I recommend everyone to learn C++ through this course. Perfect for beginners . Take your time and learn slowly and consistently. My heartful thanks to Abdul Bari sir.
By Manish Kumar Saha on 5/13/2026
course is really structured, explanations are really deep, concepts are not hurried in any way, the best there is on the internet to learn c++ right here.
By Aditya Raj on 5/6/2026
it is very informative, sir teaches in a very good and interactive way, i like the way he uses whiteboard for explaining things, trust me this is byfar the best course you can get on the earth if you want to learn c++/dsa !!! hats off to sir!!
By Abhishek V on 3/10/2026
I really enjoyed this course—it exceeded my expectations. The content is well-structured, easy to understand, and very practical. The explanations are clear, and I was able to apply what I learned almost immediately. It was definitely a great match for me and helped me build confidence in this subject. I would highly recommend this course to anyone looking to gain solid knowledge in a simple and effective way.
By Gabriela Berger on 3/6/2026
An absolutely perfect course! It is the most comprehensive C++ class I’ve found. Despite having a strong math background but no natural talent for coding, this course was so well-explained that I can finally turn my ideas into working programs. It is great for beginners and experienced learners alike. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to master C++
