Data Types - Integer C++

 Integers: Whole Number Values

  • Integer data types store whole numbers (no decimals) within specific ranges.
  • C++ offers several integer types with varying sizes and storage capacities.
  • Choosing the Right Type:
    • Consider the range of values you need to represent.
    • If you only need non-negative values, use unsigned types to potentially double the positive range.
    • Be mindful of memory constraints when working with large datasets.
    Example:

Whitespace in C++

  Whitespace in C++: A line containing only whitespace, possibly with a comment, is known as a blank line, and C++ compiler totally ignores it. Whitespace is the term used in C++ to describe blanks, tabs, newline characters and comments. Whitespace separates one part of a statement from another and enables the compiler to identify where one element in a statement, such as int, ends and the next element begins. Statement 1 In the above statement there must be at least one whitespace character (usually a space) between int and age for the compiler to be able to distinguish them. Statement 2 In the above statement 2, no whitespace characters are necessary between fruit and =, or between = and apples, although you are free to include some if you wish for readability purpose.

Data Types - Bool And Void C++

Image
 Data Types - Bool And Void C++ Bool: Representing True or False Purpose: Stores Boolean values, indicating truth or falsehood. Values: Can hold only two possible values:  true  or  false . Common Uses: Decision-making in control structures (e.g.,  if  statements) Loop conditions Function return values Example: void: Representing No Value Purpose: Indicates the absence of a value. Common Uses: Function return types that don't return a value Function parameter lists to specify no arguments

Data Types – Integer C++

Integer data types in C++ are used to store whole numbers. They are typically represented as binary numbers in memory. Integer data types can be used to store a variety of values, such as: • Loop counters • Array indices • Mathematical expressions • Enumeration values • Bit masks
