Questions and Answers

What are the values of A and B after this code snippet? int A, B; A = 2; B = 4; A = B + B / A; B = A * 5 + 3 * 2;

  • A = 6, B = 36
  • A = 6, B = 66 (correct)
  • A = 4, B = 26

    Study Notes

    I/O Streams and Standard I/O Devices

    • Input/Output: transfer of data as a sequence of bytes (stream of bytes) from the source to the destination
    • Input stream: sequence of characters from an input device (like a keyboard) to the computer
    • Output stream: sequence of characters from the computer to an output device (like a monitor)
    • I/O operations are handled using the iostream header file
    • The iostream header file contains definitions for two data types: istream and ostream
      • istream: input stream, uses the >> (extraction operator)
      • ostream: output stream, uses the << (insertion operator)

    Assignment Statements

    • Assignment operator = assigns a value to a variable
    • The assignment operator is evaluated from right to left

    Variables, Assignment Statements, and Input Statements

    • Variables must be initialized before they are used, but not necessarily during declaration
    • Data must be loaded into main memory before it can be manipulated
    • Storing data in memory is a two-step process:
      1. Instruct the computer to allocate memory
      2. Include statements in the program to put data into the allocated memory

    Allocating Memory with Constants and Variables

    • Named constants are memory locations whose content cannot change during execution.
    • Named constants have advantages: variables that don't change but are used many times can be re-defined once at the start of the program, and the compiler will generate an error if you mistype the name of a variable (not the value)
