22 Feb 2013 — San Francisco, CA — The CPPGM Foundation (www.cppgm.org) released further news today about the C++ Grandmaster Certification, the free massively open online course (MOOC) where you build your own C++ compiler, standard library and toolchain for Linux x86-64.

It was reported that 10,000 programmers have enrolled in the course including people from Intel[], Stanford[], Google[], MIT[], IEEE[], Harvard[], and many other companies and educational institutions from all over the world.

CPPGM has been inundated with requests for more information about the content of the course, so Programming Assignment 1 has been released as a public preview for free anonymous download and review.

Programming Assignment 1 asks the participant to implement the first three phases of translation as described in clause 2 of the C++ Standard (the preprocessors tokenizer).
