C++ Strings Variables are containers for storing data values.

C++ Math
In C++, there are different types of variables (defined with different keywords), for
C++ Booleans example:
C++ Conditions
C++ Switch int - stores integers (whole numbers), without decimals, such as 123 or -123
C++ While Loop double - stores floating point numbers, with decimals, such as 19.99 or
C++ For Loop -19.99
char - stores single characters, such as 'a' or 'B'. Char values are surrounded
C++ Break/Continue
by single quotes
C++ Arrays
string - stores text, such as "Hello World". String values are surrounded by
C++ Structures
double quotes
C++ References
bool - stores values with two states: true or false
C++ Pointers

Note that if you assign a new value to an existing variable, it will overwrite the
previous value:

int myNum = 15;  // myNum is 15

myNum = 10;  // Now myNum is 10
cout << myNum;  // Outputs 10

Other Types
A demonstration of other data types:

Example

int myNum = 5;               // Integer (whole number without

decimals)
double myFloatNum = 5.99;    // Floating point number (with decimals)
char myLetter = 'D';         // Character
string myText = "Hello";     // String (text)
bool myBoolean = true;       // Boolean (true or false)

You will learn more about the individual types in the Data Types chapter.

Display Variables
The cout object is used together with the << operator to display variables.

To combine both text and a variable, separate them with the << operator:

Example

int myAge = 35;

cout << "I am " << myAge << " years old.";

Add Variables Together

To add a variable to another variable, you can use the + operator:

Example

int x = 5;
int y = 6;
int sum = x + y;
cout << sum;
