Introduction

When you start learning C++, it’s important to focus on the basics first. Input and Output (I/O) are fundamental concepts, and they are handled using streams in C++. Let’s walk through the structure of a C++ program and how input/output works.

Including Libraries:

Libraries provide pre-built functions and tools.

#include<iostream> → used for input/output.

#include<math.h> → used for mathematical functions.

#include<iostream>
int main() {
    // Your code here
    return 0;
}

Output with cout:

To print output, we use cout from the iostream library. Since it belongs to the standard namespace, we write std::cout.

#include<iostream>
int main() {
    std::cout << "Hey, Striver!";
    return 0;
}

Output: Hey, Striver!

Printing on Multiple Lines:

If you write cout statements repeatedly, they print on the same line.

#include<iostream>
int main() {
    std::cout << "Hey, Striver!";
    std::cout << "Hey, Striver!";
    return 0;
}

Output: Hey, Striver! Hey, Striver!

Use \n (newline character) or std::endl to print on new lines.

#include<iostream>
int main() {
    std::cout << "Hey, Striver!" << "\n";
    std::cout << "Hey, Striver!";
    return 0;
}

Output:
Hey, Striver!
Hey, Striver!

\n vs std::endl :

\n → inserts a new line (faster, commonly used).

std::endl → inserts a new line and flushes the output buffer (slower).

#include<iostream>
int main() {
    std::cout << "Hey, Striver!" << std::endl;
    std::cout << "Hey, Striver!";
    return 0;
}

Using namespace std:

Writing using namespace std; removes the need to prefix std::. This makes code cleaner but
