\a Alarm Causes the computer to beep \b Backspace Causes the cursor to back up, or
move left one position \r Return Causes the cursor to go to the
beginning of the current line, not the next line.
\\ Backslash Causes a backslash to be printed \' Single quote Causes a single quotation mark
to be printed \" Double quote Causes a double quotation mark
to be printed
17
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
2.3 The #include Directive
• The #include directive causes the contents of another file to be inserted into the program
• Preprocessor directives are not C++ statements and do not require semicolons at the end
18
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
2.5 Variables and Constants
• Variables represent storage locations in the computer’s memory. Constants are data items whose values do not change while the program is running.
• Every variable must have a declaration.
19
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
Program 2-8
#include <iostream.h>
void main(void)
{
int value;
value = 5;
cout << “The value is “ << value << endl;
}
Program Output:
The value is 5
20
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
Assignment statements:
Value = 5; //This line is an assignment statement.
• The assignment statement evaluates the expression on the right of the equal sign then stores it into the variable named on the left of the equal sign
• The data type of the variable was in integer, so the data type of the expression on the right should evaluate to an integer as well.
21
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
Constants
• A variable is called a “variable” because its value may be changed. A constant, on the other hand, is a data item whose value does not change during the program’s execution.
22
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
Program 2-10
#include <iostream.h>

cout << “of apples.\n”;
}
23
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
Program Output
Today we sold 20 bushels
of apples.

2.6 Focus on Software Engineering: Identifiers
• Must not be a key word• Should be mnemonic (give an indication of what
the variable is used for)• The first character must be a letter or an
underscore• The remaining may be letters, digits, or
underscores• Upper and lower case letters are distinct

0xF4
• Octal numbers are preceded by a 0 Octal 31 would be written as 031
35
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
2.8 The char Data Type
• Usually 1 byte long
• Internally stored as an integer
• ASCII character set shows integer representation for each character
• ‘A’ == 65, ‘B’ == 66, ‘C’ == 67, etc.
• Single quotes denote a character, double quotes denote a string

Review key points regarding characters, strings, and C-strings:• Printable characters are internally represented by numeric codes. Most
computers use ASCII codes for this purpose.
• Characters occupy a single byte of memory.
• C-Strings are consecutive sequences of characters and can occupy several bytes of memory.
• C-Strings always have a null terminator at the end. This marks the end of the C-string.
• Character constants are always enclosed in single quotation marks.
• String constants are always enclosed in double quotation marks.
• Escape sequences are always stored internally as a single character.
44
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition

2.12 Focus on Software Engineering: Determining the Size of a Data Type
• The sizeof operator may be used to determine the size of a data type on any system.
cout << “The size of an integer is “ << sizeof(int);
54
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
Program 2-19
#include <iostream.h>
void main (void)
{
long double apple;
cout << “The size of an integer is “ << sizeof(int);
cout << “ bytes.\n”;
cout << “The size of a long integer is “ << sizeof(long);
cout << “ bytes.\n”;
cout << “An apple can be eaten in “ << sizeof(apple);
cout << “ bytes!\n”;
}
55

56
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
2.13 Focus on Software Engineering: Variable Assignment and Initialization
• An assignment operation assigns, or copies, a value into a variable. When a value is assigned to a variable as part of the variable’s declaration, it is called an initialization.
57
Starting Out with C++, 3rd Edition
Program 2-20
#include <iostream.h>
void main (void)
{
int month = 2, days = 28;
