ACSC182: Programming Principles I

Lab 1: Introduction to C++ Programming (I)


Exercise 1:
1. Create a new C++ project in Visual Studio (choose Console App – Empty Project), click Next and
save it as Lab1Ex1 in your directory.

2. Press Ctrl + Shift + A or Right click on the option Source Files (found under the Solution Explorer
 Source Files) and select Add  New Item and then select C++ File (.cpp) and name the file to
be created using the same name with the project, that is Lab1Ex1.cpp, and press Add.
3. Enter the following code within your editor.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()

{
float test = 85;
float homework = 90;
float lab = 80;
float final_exam = 75;
float coursework;
float final_grade;

coursework = 0.3 * test + 0.2 * homework + 0.5 * lab;


final_grade = 0.6 * coursework + 0.4 * final_exam;

cout << "Final Grade is " << final_grade << endl;

system("pause");
return 0;
}

4. Press the F10 function key to trace out the variables’ values after the execution of each
statement, at the position shown below, and try to understand the concept of the assignments.

5. Save your project and close it. Exit Visual Studio.

Exercise 2:
1. Create a new C++ project in Visual Studio (choose Console App) and save it as Lab1Ex2 in your
directory.
2. Press Ctrl + Shift + A or Right click on the option Source Files (found under the Solution Explorer
 Source Files) and select Add  New Item and then select C++ File (.cpp) and name the file to
be created using the same name with the project, that is Lab1Ex2.cpp, and press Add.
3. Enter the following code within your editor.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
//program to calculate and print the area of a triangle
int main()

{
float base = 4.2;
float height = 5.25;
area = (base * height) / 2;

cout << "Area is " << area << endl;

system("pause");
return 0;
}

4. Compile the program (press F5). What is the error produced? What type of error is it?
Correct it, re-compile & run.
5. Save your project and close it. Exit Visual Studio.

temp = number1;
number1 = number2;
number2 = temp;

cout << "After swapping : " << endl;


cout << "Number 1 is: " << number1 << endl;
cout << "Number 2 is: " << number2 << endl;

system("pause");
return 0;
}
