1.

Arithmetic operators are used to perform arithmetic operations on numeric operands, such
as integers, floating-point numbers, and characters. These operators include:

 Addition (+): Adds two operands.

 Subtraction (-): Subtracts the second operand from the first operand.
 Multiplication (*): Multiplies two operands.
 Division (/): Divides the first operand by the second operand.
 Modulus (%): Returns the remainder of the division of the first operand by the second
operand.
 Increment (++): Increments an operand by one.
 Decrement (--): Decrements an operand by one.

Logical Operators

Logical operators are used to combine Boolean values and evaluate conditions. These operators
include:

 Logical AND (&&): Returns true if both operands are true, otherwise false.
 Logical OR (||): Returns true if either or both operands are true, otherwise false.
 Logical NOT (!): Negates the operand, returning true if the operand is false and vice
versa.

2. A variable's type determines the kind of data it can hold, such as integers, floating-point
numbers, characters, or Boolean values. It defines the category to which the variable belongs
and restricts the type of operations that can be performed on it. For example, an integer
variable can store whole numbers, while a character variable can store single characters.

A variable's value is the actual data stored in the variable. It represents the specific content that
the variable holds at a particular moment. The value can change throughout the program's
execution as operations are performed on the variable. For instance, an integer variable may
initially store the value 10, but later, it could be assigned the value 20.
3. The “break” statement and “goto” statement are both control flow statements used in
programming to alter the normal flow of execution. However, they differ in their purpose,
usage, and implications.

The break statement is primarily used to terminate loops prematurely. It causes the program to
exit the current loop iteration and resume execution from the statement following the loop.
The break statement is typically used within loop structures, such as for, while, or do-while
loops, to control the loop's termination conditions.

The goto statement, on the other hand, is a non-structured control flow statement that
unconditionally transfers the program execution to a specific labeled statement within the
program. It allows for unrestricted jumping to any point in the code, regardless of the current
program flow.

4. the conditional operator, also known as the ternary operator, is a shorthand way of writing a
simple if-else statement. It takes three operands and evaluates the first operand as a Boolean
expression. If the first operand is true, it returns the second operand; otherwise, it returns the
third operand. The syntax of the conditional operator is:

expression ? true_expression : false_expression;

5. C++ provides two types of comment delimiters to document code:

Single-line comments start with two forward slashes (//) and extend to the end of the line.
Anything written after the // is considered a comment and is ignored by the C++ compiler.
Single-line comments are typically used for brief explanations or notes within the same line of
code.

Multi-line comments start with /* and end with */. They can span multiple lines and are useful
for more detailed explanations, descriptions, or documentation of code blocks.

6. Differences

 Characters are individual elements, while strings are composed of multiple characters.
  Characters are represented using single quotes, while strings are represented using
double quotes or apostrophes.
 Characters represent individual symbols, while strings represent meaningful textual
information.

Similarities

 Both characters and strings are data types used to represent textual information.
 Strings are composed of characters.
 Both characters and strings are encoded using character sets like Unicode or ASCII.

7. The if statement and if-else statement are fundamental control flow constructs used in
programming to make decisions based on conditions. Both statements allow for conditional
execution of code blocks, but they differ in their ability to handle multiple possible outcomes.

8. Function return type: The return type specifies the data type of the value returned by the
function. If the function does not return a value, the return type is void.

Function name: The name of the function, which identifies it uniquely within a program.

Function parameters: The parameters provide input data to the function and can be of various
data types. They are enclosed in parentheses following the function name.

9. Declaration statements: introduce new variables or functions into the program. They specify
the variable's data type, name, and optional initial value. Declaration statements are essential
for allocating memory for variables and defining their types.

Expression statements: evaluate expressions, which can perform calculations, assignments, or

function calls. They typically result in a side effect, such as updating a variable's value or calling
a function.

Compound statements: group multiple statements into a single block, allowing them to be
treated as a unit. They are enclosed in curly braces '{}' and can be used wherever a single
statement can be used.

Selection statements: control the program flow based on conditions. They allow for executing
different code blocks depending on the outcome of a Boolean expression.
Iteration statements: repeat a block of code multiple times until a termination condition is met.
They are used for iterating over collections, performing repetitive tasks, and accumulating
values.

Jump statements: transfer the program execution to a specific location within the code. They
are typically used to break out of loops or alter the normal program flow.

10. These operators can be broadly categorized into input and output operators:

Input operators enable programs to receive information from external sources, such as user
input, files, or network connections. Common input operators include:

 cin (standard input stream): Reads data from the standard input stream, typically the
keyboard.
 ifstream (file input stream): Reads data from a specified file.
 istringstream (string input stream): Reads data from a string.Output Operators:

Output operators allow programs to send data to external destinations, such as the console,
files, or network connections. Common output operators include:

 cout (standard output stream): Writes data to the standard output stream, typically the
console.
 ofstream (file output stream): Writes data to a specified file.
 ostringstream (string output stream): Writes data to a string.
 printf() (formatted output function): Formats and prints data to the standard output
stream.

11. Start with a letter or an underscore: The first character of an identifier must be a letter (A-Z,
a-z) or an underscore (_).

Subsequent characters: Following the first character, identifiers can consist of letters, digits,
underscores, and colons (:).
Case-sensitive: C++ is case-sensitive, meaning myVariable is different from myvariable.
Keywords and reserved words: Identifiers cannot be keywords or reserved words, which have
special meanings in the C++ language. A list of keywords can be found in C++ documentation.
No spaces or special symbols: Identifiers cannot contain spaces, punctuation marks, or other
special symbols except for the underscore and colon.
12. sizeof() operator is used to determine the size of any data item or type in bytes.
syntax: - sizeof(operand);

13. Decimal notation: Decimal notation is the most common way to represent integers. It uses
the base-10 number system, with each digit representing a power of 10. For example, the
decimal integer 123 represents 1 * 100 + 2 * 10 + 3 * 1.
Binary notation: Binary notation represents integers using the base-2 number system, with
each digit representing a power of 2. For example, the binary integer 1011 represents 1 * 2^3 +
0 * 2^2 + 1 * 2^1 + 1 * 2^0.
Octal notation: Octal notation represents integers using the base-8 number system, with each
digit representing a power of 8. For example, the octal integer 123 represents 1 * 8^2 + 2 * 8^1
+ 3 * 8^0.

14. The while statement and do-while statement are both control flow statements used in
programming to execute a block of code repeatedly until a condition is met.
The while statement evaluates the condition before the loop body is executed. If the condition
is false, the loop terminates without executing the loop body.
The do-while statement evaluates the condition after the loop body is executed. This means
that the loop body is always executed at least once, regardless of the initial condition.

15. The type of statement used for declaring a set of closely related constants is an enum
statement, or enumeration statement.
