This series will teach you the language that is C++. We will be utilizing Unreal Engine 4's API and we will try to stay away from the STL (standard template library) as much as we can. You can watch these tutorials with some to no programming knowledge, you can use the series to familiarize yourself with the UE4 API, and use it to refresh yourself. BUT! Be warned to those who are watching this series with some programming or some C++ knowledge you may find these a little bit slow moving as they are more directed towards people with zero C++ knowledge and little to no programming knowledge. That doesn't mean there isn't good information within!
