Based on what we learned about C++ primitive data types, variables and constants, let's look at an example that could apply to a seasoned software engineer's life.
Assume we are organizing a series of learning sessions on C++, where sessionsConducted
is an integer representing the number of sessions held till date. avgRating
is a float representing the average participant rating for these sessions. To mark the start of the sessions, we've defined a character type initialLetter
starting with 'A'. Also, isLearningCpp
is a boolean indicating whether the user is currently learning C++ or not.
The C++ code snippet provided shows how to declare these variables, assign values, and print the variables using cout
. After running this code, you'll see printed details about these defined variables on the console. This gives you a hands-on understanding of working with different data types and variables in C++.
xxxxxxxxxx
using namespace std;
int main() {
// Declaring integer type variable
int sessionsConducted = 50;
// Declaring float type variable
float avgRating = 4.7;
// Declaring char type variable
char initialLetter = 'A';
// Declaring boolean type variable
bool isLearningCpp = true;
// Printing the variables
cout << "Sessions conducted: " << sessionsConducted << endl;
cout << "Average rating: " << avgRating << endl;
cout << "Initial letter: " << initialLetter << endl;
cout << "Learning C++: " << isLearningCpp << endl;
return 0;
