Study Notes

Flowcharts

  • Flowcharts are structured, step-by-step plans for software, apps, or systems, visually illustrated.
  • They use symbols representing unique functions.
  • A simple example is adding two numbers.

Flowchart Symbols

  • Terminal: The start and end points of a flowchart.
  • Input/Output: Represents input and output data.
  • Process: Represents the operation being performed.
  • Arrow: Shows the direction of the process flow.
  • Decision: Represents a choice.

Display Method

  • The "print method" displays data on the screen or console.
  • It's also called the "display method" or "output."
  • A simple program (Hello, World!) demonstrates how the display method works through code.

Including iostream

  • #include <iostream>: This line in the code tells the compiler to use the iostream library for input and output functionality.

Using namespace std;

  • using namespace std;: This line simplifies coding by allowing you to use the various functions (like cout and endl) within the standard library directly without needing to specify "std:: before each function.

int main()

  • int main(): This function is the entry point of the program.
  • int: Specifies an integer return value.
  • The code in the curly braces {} defines the actions the program will execute.

cout

  • cout: A function used to display output.
  • "Hello World" is a string literal, which is displayed.
  • endl: Inserts a new line after the output.

Return 0

  • return 0;: Indicates successful program execution.

Data Types

  • Data types specify the kind of data stored in variables, affecting operations and values.

Character (char)

  • Stores a single character (e.g., 'A', '$').

String (string)

  • Stores a sequence of characters (e.g., "Hello", "World").

Integer (int)

  • Stores whole numbers (positive, negative, zero).

Float (float)

  • Stores numbers with decimal values (e.g., 3.14).

Double (double)

  • Stores large numbers with decimal values (e.g., scientific calculations).

Boolean (bool)

  • Stores true or false values.

Variable Declaration, Initialization, and Assigning

  • Declaration: Declares a variable without assigning a value.
  • Assigning: Assigning a value to a previously declared variable.
  • Initialization: Declaring a variable and assigning a value concurrently.

Concatenation

  • Combining two or more strings together.

Appending

  • Adding an element to the end of a container.

Arithmetic Operators

  • Used to perform mathematical calculations (+, -, *, /, %).

Comparison Operators (Relational Operators)

  • Used to compare two values and return a boolean result (==, !=, >, <, >=, <=).

Logical Operators

  • Used to perform logical operations (AND (&&), OR (||), NOT (!))
  • AND (&&): Returns TRUE if both operands are TRUE; otherwise, FALSE.
  • OR (||): Returns TRUE if at least one operand is TRUE; otherwise, FALSE.
  • NOT (!): Returns the opposite boolean value.
