C++ Chapter 3: Expressions and Interactivity

What is the purpose of the cin object in C++?

The cin object can be used to input multiple values of the same type only.

What is the stream extraction operator used with cin?

The cin object requires the _______________ file to be included.

What happens when a user enters data through the cin object?

The cin object can be used to read input from a file.

What is an expression in C++?

When using cin to input multiple values, the values must be separated by _______________.

Match the following C++ concepts with their descriptions:

The cin object can only be used to input a single value at a time.

What is the purpose of the cin object?

The cin object can be used to read input from a file.

What is stored in the input buffer when a user enters data through the cin object?

The cin object is often used with _______________ to display a user prompt first.

How are multiple values entered through the cin object separated?

The order of the variables matters when using cin to input multiple values.

What is the purpose of the stream extraction operator (>>)?

The cin object converts the input data to the type that matches the _______________.

Match the following C++ concepts with their descriptions:

The cin object can be used to input multiple values of different types.

The cin Object

cin is the standard input object.
cin requires the iostream file.
cin is used to read input from the keyboard.
cin is often used with cout to display a user prompt first.
Data is retrieved from cin with >>, the stream extraction operator.
Input data is stored in one or more variables.

How cin Works

User input goes from the keyboard to the input buffer, where it is stored as characters.
cin converts the data to the type that matches the variable.

Inputting Multiple Values

cin can be used to input multiple values, e.g., cin >> height >> width;.
Multiple values from the keyboard must be separated by spaces or [Enter].
You must press [Enter] after typing the last value.
Multiple values need not all be of the same type.
Order is important; the first value entered is stored in the first variable, and so on.

Mathematical Expressions

An expression is something that can be evaluated to produce a value.
