    Study Notes

    Skeletons

    • Skeleton programs represent the simplest form of code that compiles successfully.
    • Their primary function is to define the entry point of a program without executing any tasks.
    • Memorization of skeletons is advisable for structured program development.
    • Common structure includes BEGIN and END pairs, signifying the start and completion of program segments.

    Skeleton Examples

    • C# Skeleton:
      • using System;
        
        class MainClass {
          public static void Main (string[] args) {
          }
        }
        
    • C++ Skeleton:
      • #include <iostream>
        
        int main () {
          return 0;
        }
        
    • Java Skeleton:
      • class MainClass {
          public static void main (String[] args) {
          }
        }
        
    • Python Skeleton:
      • if __name__ == "__main__":
            pass
        
    • All skeletons must contain a 'main' function, marking the starting point of execution.

    Printing to the Screen

    • To display text, syntax varies by programming language but generally follows a structured approach:
      • Pseudocode example:
        • BEGIN MAIN
             PRINTLINE “Hello, World!”
             PRINT “Bob” + “ was” + “ here”
          END MAIN
          
    • C# Example:
      • using System;
        
        class MainClass {
          public static void Main (string[] args) {
            Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!");
            Console.Write("Bob" + " was" + " here.");
          }
        }
        
    • C++ Example:
      • #include <iostream>
        using namespace std;
        
        int main () {
           cout << "Hello, World!" << endl; 
           cout << "Bob was here." << endl;
           return 0;
        }
        
    • Different languages may have additional functions for printing, such as Console.Write() in C#.
