Whitespace in C++

A line containing only whitespace,


possibly with a comment, is known as a
blank line, and C++ compiler totally
ignores it.

Primitive Built-in Types
C++ offers the programmer a rich assortment of built-in
as well as user defined data types. Following table lists
down seven basic C++ data types

Lecture by Muhammad Hussain 10


Type Keyword
Integer int
Floating point float
Boolean bool
Character char
Double floating point double
Valueless void
Wide character wchar_t

Lecture by Muhammad Hussain 11


Several of the basic types can be modified using
one or more of these type modifiers −
signed
unsigned
short
Long

The following table shows the variable type, how


much memory it takes to store the value in
memory, and what is maximum and minimum
value which can be stored in such type of variables

C++ Operators
An operator is simply a symbol that is used to perform operations.

There can be many types of operations like arithmetic, logical, bitwise etc.
There are following types of operators to perform different types of
operations in C language.

• Arithmetic Operators
• Relational Operators
• Logical Operators
• Bitwise Operators
• Assignment Operator
• Unary operator
• Ternary or Conditional Operator
• Misc Operator
