CA07 - Programming Best Practice and Design Patterns - 4 Days
Course Description
Developers needing to understand design patterns and best practice in order to code efficiently and effectively should take an interest in this course.
Pre-requisites
A core understanding of programming principles is important to get the most out of this training.
Objectives
This course explains what patterns are and how they can be used to help design object oriented software. We examine the most important patterns in depth, ensuring that attendees have seen all the patterns at least once. In addition, the NullObject, Type Object and Properties patterns will be reviewed, and their roles in building highly configurable dynamic systems will be examined. The course can be taught using examples from C#/.NET, Java, and C++.
At the conclusion of training, students will understand design patterns, know where they fit in the software development process and be able to leverage them to solve design problems effectively. They will also gain a good understanding of Programming Best Practice.
Customisation
For on-site courses (i.e. at your premises), we are more than happy to tailor the course agenda to suit your exact requirements. In many cases, we are able to build your in-house standards and naming conventions into the delivered course.
