Software engineering researchers and practitioners noticed that parts of software projects could often be solved using approaches that were discovered earlier to solve similar problems. This led to the documentation of software design and architectural patterns, which are known solution approaches to a class of problems. This course starts by putting software patterns into perspective by answering the question, “What is a software pattern, and how is it different from an algorithm?” You will then learn about the two classes of patterns—software design and architecture patterns. Next, you’ll learn common C++ idioms. Finally, you will learn about software patterns for concurrency. By the end of the course, you will have useful and practical tools to improve the quality of your code and productivity. You’ll also be able to analyze a given part of your software project, pick the right pattern for the job, and apply it.

"You guys are the gold standard of crash-courses... Narrow enough that it doesn't need years of study or a full blown book to get the gist, but broad enough that an afternoon of Googling doesn't cut it."
