Which of the following is a common misconception about naming conventions?

Which character is NOT allowed in C++ identifiers?

Which of the following C++ identifiers is legal?

What is the naming convention used in C++ where the first letter of each word except the first word is capitalized?

Which of the following identifier names adheres to good practice and is meaningful?

Given the identifier 'RATE.CPP', why is it considered illegal in C++?

Identifiers must start with a letter (A-Z or a-z) or an underscore (_).
Identifiers can be of any length, but C++ is case-sensitive.
Legal identifier names include CISC1600, RATE, and _RATE, but not 1600CISC, $cash, my-Value, or RATE.CPP.
Two common naming conventions are Camelcase and Snakecase (or "C-Style").
Camelcase: start with a lowercase letter, and capitalize the first letter of each subsequent word in a compound word or phrase.
Snakecase: use underscores between compound words and longer phrases, with no additional capitals.

All variables in a C++ program must be declared.
A variable declaration gives the variable a name, e.g. int myVar;, double RATE;, or char firstInitial;.
Variables can be initialized with a value during declaration, e.g. int numOfStudents = 10;.

Variables are used to store and name data.
A variable's value can be changed later in the program.
If a variable is given no value when it is created, it will have a garbage value until it is assigned a value.
Each variable is assigned an address/memory location when the program is compiled.
The value assigned to a variable is stored in that memory location while the program runs.

A variable has no meaningful value until it is assigned one.
Example of assignment: desiredValue = minValue + 25;.
Uninitialized variables store garbage data and can have different values each time the program is run.
Variables can be initialized with a value during declaration, e.g. int minValue = 10;.
Multiple variables can be initialized with values during declaration, e.g. double rate = 0.07, time, balance = 0.0;.

Streams can be used to feed input from a source into a program or send output generated by the program.
cout is used to output strings of text or the value of variables.
Example of output: int faculty = 26; cout << faculty;.
