Introduction to C++
C++, as we all know is an extension to C language and was developed by Bjarne stroustrup at bell labs. C++ is an intermediate level language, as it comprises a confirmation of both high level and low level language features. C++ is a statically typed, free form, multiparadigm, compiled general-purpose language.
C++ is an Object Oriented Programming languagebut is not purely Object Oriented. Its features like Friend
and Virtual
, violate some of the very important OOPS features, rendering this language unworthy of being called completely Object Oriented. Its a middle level language.
We start the tutorial series with one of the simplest programs that can be written in the C++ language.
// A hello world program in C++
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout << "Hello World!";
return 0;
}
The hello world program is one of the simplest programs, but it already contains the fundamental components that every C++ program has. Don’t be overwhelmed, we will take a look at the code line by line.
Type the code in your favorite editor (always type, don’t use cut/paste. This is better for learning purposes).
Save the program with the name: hello.cpp.
After saving the source code you can compile it. It should compile without any errors.
