Study Notes
Binary Combinations
- The number of possible combinations for 'n' bits is 2n.
- With 1 bit, there are 2 combinations.
- With 2 bits, there are 4 combinations.
- With 3 bits, there are 8 combinations.
Memory Addresses and Base 16
- Every byte has a unique physical address.
- Base 10 uses digits 0-9.
- Base 16 (hexadecimal) uses digits 0-9 and letters A-F.
- Base 16 has 16 unique symbols.
C++ Code Structure
- C++ programs often include header files (e.g., iostream) at the top to use predefined functions and data types.
-
#include <iostream>includes input/output streams. -
using namespace std;makes standard library components accessible without the prefix "std::". -
coutis used for displaying output to the console. -
cout << endl;inserts a new line. -
cinis used to obtain input from the user. - The
mainfunction is the entry point of a C++ program. -
int main()specifies the function returns an integer. -
return 0;indicates successful program execution. -
stringstores sequences of characters. - Insertion operator (
<<) sends data to output streams. -
return 0inint main()signifies successful execution.
Algorithms
- Algorithms are step-by-step procedures to achieve a solution.
- Computers require explicit instructions for each step.
- Algorithm examples given involve sequential searching.
Variable Assignment and Evaluation
- Variable assignment follows right-to-left evaluation.
- In
myInt = 12 + 10, the expression 12 + 10 is evaluated (22) and assigned tomyInt. - Assignments overwrite existing values.
- Initial assignments in a program have garbage values.
- Initial values for variables like
totalmust be calculated after inputs likehours. - Variables used in expressions (e.g.,
myIntinmyInt + 10) must have already been assigned valid values.
