Chapter 2
Writing a Guessing Game with C++ Types
You will begin the process of learning C++ by learning about the different built-in types that the language supports. C++ has built-in support for integers, floating point numbers, booleans, and enumerators. This chapter covers all of these types. We also look at the different types of operators that can be used to manipulate and compare these types of values. It is useful to understand how C++ handles variables before we begin to create programs in the language. To start, we take a look at the difference between dynamically and statically typed languages, which includes how we declare and define variables in C++.
Dynamic Versus Static Typed Languages
Variables in programming languages can ...
