1. C: Language basics.
2. C: Functions.
3. C: Basics of OS interfaces used in the C/system library.
4. C: Memory management.
5. C: Data structures.
6. C: Examples of various libraries.
7. C++: Language basics, OO, classes.
8. C++: Runtime polymorphism, data structures with runtime polymorphism.
9. C++: Templates.
10. C++: STL.
