Lab 1 - Intro To Comp Programs

This document provides an introduction to computer programs lab. The lab activities guide students through writing basic C++ programs that output text and calculations to the console. Students are asked to [1] write simple programs to print messages and calculations, [2] compile and run the programs, noting any errors, and [3] answer questions about the purpose of components like cout and comments. The goal is for students to gain experience with the interactive development environment, editing, compiling, and running programs.
