How to C++: 'Hello World', for loops, if, and the precursor to string comparisons
Channel: ArlingtonMatrix
Date: 2019-01-13

This is the beginning of (hopefully) a series of videos detailing beginner programming in the C++ language.  These videos assume a base knowledge of programming in general but do not assume prior experience with C++.  

Index:
00:03:14 - Starting a program in C++
00:04:50 - Including libraries
00:07:08 - Basic printf command ("hello world")
00:10:30 - Basic 'for' loop
00:12:00 - try...catch...finally introduction (not very detailed *yet*)
00:15:00 - A program that repeats the information give it
00:15:26 - The precursor to string comparisons: getting user input from the command line
00:16:15 - Basic overview of our first program

In this first video, we introduce the use of printf to print information to the terminal, then extend the function a bit further to do some base processing of command-line arguments passed into the program. 

The final result is a program which takes any set of command line arguments and prints them back out line-by-line to the terminal while checking for exceptions (which should never occur in this case).
