The document provides an overview of the history and basics of C++ programming. It discusses: - Bjarne Stroustrup created C++ in the early 1980s as an extension of C to support object-oriented programming. - A typical C++ environment includes a program development environment, the C++ language itself, and the C++ Standard Library. - A C++ program goes through several phases: edit, preprocess, compile, link, load, and execute. - Basic C++ concepts covered include variables, data types, operators, and common errors.

- 2. History of C and C++ History of C++ Extension of C Early 1980s: Bjarne Stroustrup (Bell Laboratories) Provides capabilities for object-oriented programming Objects: reusable software components Model items in real world Object-oriented programs Easy to understand, correct and modify Hybrid language C-like style Object-oriented style Both 2

- 4. Basics of a Typical C++ Environment4 Phases of C++ Programs: 1. Edit 2. Preprocess 3. Compile 4. Link 5. Load 6. Execute Loader Primary Memory Program is created in the editor and stored on disk. Preprocessor program processes the code. Loader puts program in memory. CPU takes each instruction and executes it, possibly storing new data values as the program executes. Compiler Compiler creates object code and stores it on disk. Linker links the object code with the libraries, creates a.out and stores it on disk Editor Preprocessor Linker CPU Primary Memory . . . . . . . . . . . . Disk Disk Disk Disk Disk
- 5. Hello World This is a comment line - the line is a brief description of program does. directives for the preprocessor. They are not executable code lines but indications for the compiler. <iostream.h> tells the compiler's preprocessor to include the iostream standard header file. cout is the standard output stream The return instruction causes the main() function finish and return the code terminating the program without any errors during its execution This line corresponds to the beginning of the main function declaration. The main function is the point C++ programs begin their execution. It is first to be executed when a program starts.
- 6. Basics of a Typical C++ Environment Input/output cin Standard input stream Normally keyboard cout Standard output stream Normally computer screen cerr Standard error stream Display error messages 6
- 7. Comments It is of 2 types:- Single line comments // example of single line comment //this is the very simple example of single line comments Multi line comments /* This is the example of multi line comment */
- 8. A Simple Program: Printing a Line of Text 8 Escape Sequence Description n Newline. Position the screen cursor to the beginning of the next line. t Horizontal tab. Move the screen cursor to the next tab stop. r Carriage return. Position the screen cursor to the beginning of the current line; do not advance to the next line. a Alert. Sound the system bell. Backslash. Used to print a backslash character. " Double quote. Used to print a double quote character.
- 9. Variables Variable names Valid identifier Series of characters (letters, digits, underscores) Cannot begin with digit Case sensitive length of an identifier is not limited, (but some compilers only the 32 first characters rest ignore) Neither spaces nor marked letters can be part of an identifier can also begin with an underline character ( _ ) your own identifiers cannot match any key word of the C++ language 9
- 10. Variables Location in memory where value can be stored Common data types int - integer numbers char - characters double - double precision floating point numbers Float - floating point numbers Bool - Boolean value (true or false) 10
- 11. Signed and Unsigned Integer Types For integer data types, there are three sizes: Int long - larger size of integer, short, which are declared as long int and short int. The keywords long and short are called sub-type qualifiers. The requirement is that short and int must be at least 16 bits, long must be at least 32 bits, short is no longer than int, which is no longer than long. Typically, short is 16 bits, long is 32 bits, and int is either 16 or 32 bits. all integer data types are signed data types, i.e. they have values which can be positive or negative
- 12. Declaration of variables Declare variables with name and data type before use int a; float mynumber; int MyAccountBalance; int integer1; int integer2; int sum; int integer1, integer2, sum;
- 13. Example A program to add two numbers; #include<iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int a, b; // variable declaration a = 10; b= 20; int addition = a + b; cout << “answer is:” << addition << endl; return 0; }
- 14. Scope of variables Global variables can be referred to anywhere in the code, within any function, whenever it is after its declaration. The scope of the local variables is limited to the code level in which they are declared.
- 15. Constants: Literals A constant is any expression that has a fixed value. It can be Integer Numbers, Floating-Point Numbers, Characters and Strings Examples 75 // decimal 0113 // octal 0x4b // hexadecimal 6.02e23 // 6.02 x 10 23 1.6e-19 // 1.6 x 10 -19 3.0 // 3.0 #define PI 3.14159265 #define NEWLINE 'n' circle = 2 * PI * r; cout << NEWLINE;
- 16. Defined constants (#define) You can define your own names for constants simply by using the #define preprocessor directive. #define identifier value Example #define PI 3.14159265 #define NEWLINE 'n' #define WIDTH 100
- 17. Operators Input stream object >> (stream extraction operator) Used with std::cin Waits for user to input value, then press Enter (Return) key Stores value in variable to right of operator Converts value to variable data type = (assignment operator) Assigns value to variable Binary operator (two operands) Example: sum = variable1 + variable2; 17
- 18. Arithmetic operators The five arithmetical operations + addition - subtraction * multiplication / division % module
- 19. Example int a, b; a = 10; b = 4; a = b; b = 7; a = 2 + (b = 5); a = b = c = 5; a -= 5; a /= b; a++; a+=1; a=a+1; B=3; A=++B; A=B++;
- 20. Relational operators == Equal != Different > Greater than < Less than >= Greater or equal than <= Less or equal than (7 == 5) (5 > 4) (3 != 2) (6 >= 6) Suppose that a=2, b=3and c=6, (a == 5) (a*b >= c) (b+4 > a*c) ((b=2) == a)
- 21. Logic operators ( !, &&, || ) For example: ( (5 == 5) && (3 > 6) ) ( (5 == 5) || (3 > 6)) Conditional operator ( ? ) condition ? result1 : result2 if condition is true the expression will return result1, if not it will return result2. 7==5 ? 4 : 3 7==5+2 ? 4 : 3 5>3 ? a : b
- 22. Precedence of Operators Rules of operator precedence Operators in parentheses evaluated first Nested/embedded parentheses Operators in innermost pair first Multiplication, division, modulus applied next Operators applied from left to right Addition, subtraction applied last Operators applied from left to right 22 Operator(s) Operation(s) Order of evaluation (precedence) () Parentheses Evaluated first. If the parentheses are nested, the expression in the innermost pair is evaluated first. If there are several pairs of parentheses “on the same level” (i.e., not nested), they are evaluated left to right. *, /, or % Multiplication Division Modulus Evaluated second. If there are several, they re evaluated left to right. + or - Addition Subtraction Evaluated last. If there are several, they are evaluated left to right.
- 23. Types of Errors Syntax errors A syntax error occurs when the programmer fails to obey one of the grammar rules of the language. Runtime errors A runtime error occurs whenever the program instructs the computer to do something that it is either incapable or unwilling to do. Logic errors Logic errors are usually the most difficult kind of errors to find and fix, because there frequently is no obvious indication of the error. Usually the program runs successfully. It simply doesn't behave as it should. it doesn't produce the correct answers.
- 24. Syntax errors Syntax Error: undeclared identifer “cout”
- 25. Syntax errors result = (firstVal - secondVal / factor; Syntax Error: ’)’ expected cout << “Execution Terminated << endl; Syntax Error: illegal string constant double x = 2.0, y = 3.1415, product; x * y = product; Syntax Error: not an l-value
- 26. Logical errors int a, b; int sum = a + b; cout << "Enter two numbers to add: "; cin >> a; cin >> b; cout << "The sum is: " << sum; char done = 'Y'; while (done = 'Y') { //... cout << "Continue? (Y/N)"; cin >> done; }
