C++ Syntax Let’s break up the following code to understand it better: Example #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { cout << “Hello World!”; return 0; } Example explained Line 1: #include <iostream> is a header file…
C++ Get Started To start using C++, you need two things: A text editor, like Notepad, to write C++ code A compiler, like GCC, to translate the C++ code into a language that the computer will understand There are many…
