Study Notes
Object Oriented Programming in C++
- C++ is a general-purpose programming language supporting various programming models, like object-oriented programming (OOP)
- Created by Bjarne Stroustrup in the early 1980s
- Commonly used for high-performance commercial software, games, and graphics
- A computer program is a set of instructions that tells a computer what to do
- Computer programs are written in high-level languages like Visual Basic, Pascal, Java, and C++
- Programs must be translated into machine language (0s and 1s) before a computer can execute them
C++ Program Structure
- Programs start with preprocessor directives, followed by the
void main()
function - The
void main()
function is the starting point of execution - Executable statements are placed within curly braces (
{}
) - The
#include <iostream.h>
directive is used to include input/output operations in C++ programs -
cout
is used to display output on the screen -
cout<<“Information Technology”;
displays "Information Technology" on the screen -
cin>>variable
reads input from the user, and assigns it to the variable
Data Types
- Data types are declarations of variables for storing different types of data
- Data types in C++ include integers, floating-point numbers, double-precision numbers, and characters
- Integers represent whole numbers (e.g., -3, 0, 367, 2081)
- Floating-point numbers represent real numbers (e.g., 3.75, -2.1, 388.80)
- Characters represent single characters (e.g., 'a', '+', '%', '5')
Constants and Variables
- Constants are values that do not change during program execution (e.g., 42, 7.25, 's', "Computer")
- Variables are memory locations used to store values that may change during program execution
- Variables must be declared before use, specifying the data type (e.g.,
int x;
,float length;
) - Variables can be initialized with a starting value (e.g.,
int x = 4;
,float length = 12.5;
)
Operators
- Operators specify actions to perform on variables or values
- Arithmetic Operators: Addition (+), subtraction (-), multiplication (*), division (/), modulo (%)
-
Assignment Operators: Assign a value to a variable (e.g.,
=
,+=
,-=
,*=
,/=
,%=
) - Relational Operators: Compare values (e.g., ==, !=, <, >, <=, >=)
- Logical Operators: Combine conditions (e.g., &&, ||, !)
-
Preprocessor Directives: Control how the preprocessor handles the code before the compiler sees it (e.g.,
#include <headerfile.h>
)
Escape Sequences
- Escape sequences are used to control output formatting and for special characters
-
\n
creates a new line,\t
creates a tab space,\b
backspace
Input/Output Operations
-
cout
is used to display output to the console -
cin
is used to read input from the console, The keywordcin
is used with the extraction operator (>>)
Manipulators
- Manipulators modify the output format
-
endl
inserts a new line character -
setw
sets the minimum field width for output
Header Files
- Header files contain declarations of functions and variables that are used in the program
-
iostream.h
,conio.h
,math.h
,string.h
,iomanip.h
,time.h
are some commonly used header files.
