Compilation and C++ Basics

This lecture covers the basics of compilation and C++ programming. It starts with an introduction to assembly language and progresses to discussing compilers, source code transformation, and linking. The lecture also covers C++ syntax, including variables, type conversion, scope, operators, pointers, references, decisional branching, loops, functions, and preprocessing macros. Practical exercises involve creating C++ programs, manipulating variables, and implementing algorithms. The session concludes with an interactive demonstration of compiling and running C++ code using CMake and debugging with GDB.
