Study Notes
Variables in C++
- Variables in C++ are containers that store data.
- Regular variables hold values that can be changed during program execution.
- Constant variables are assigned a value once and cannot be changed later.
- The '==' operator checks if two values are equal, returning "true" if they are and "false" if they are not.
- Reserved words are keywords that have special meaning in C++ and cannot be used as identifiers.
- Local variables are declared within a function or block of code, and are only accessible within that scope.
- Global variables are declared outside of any function, and are accessible from anywhere in the program.
- If a global variable is not initialized, it will be assigned a default value, typically zero.
- Local variables are stored in the stack section of memory.
- Local variables exist only during the execution of the function or block of code where they are declared.
- '/' is the division operator in C++.
- The logical NOT operator '!' reverses the logical value of an expression, turning "true" to "false" and "false" to "true".
- double is the data type used to store fractional numbers with 15 decimal digits in C++.
- cin is used to read input from the user in C++.
- The '+=' operator adds a value to the existing value of a variable and assigns the result to the variable.
- bool is the data type used to store boolean values (true or false) in C++.
