It is used to hold a piece of data, for instance, a number or a string. A variable has a name, so that it can be referred to, like a box with a label on it. The name… –Can contain letters, digits and underscores (Number_5 is valid) –Cannot begin d with a digit (“4thVariable” is invalid) –Cannot be the same as a C++ reserved keyword (“true” is invalid) –Identifiers are case sensitive (“A” and “a” are different) A variable has a piece of data placed in it using an equals sign: x = 2.6 Naming Conventions –Use underscore for word separator (my_variable) –Alternative is to use camel case (myVariable) for word seperator

Variable definitions int type –This tells C++ that the variable x is going to be an integer. –This means a whole number, which can be positive (any value up to +32767), negative (down to -32768) or zero. Defining a Variable Specify a variable type (integer) and size (16 bits) Can also specify an optional initialization value

Fundamental Data Types When programming, we store the variables in our computer's memory, but the computer has to know what kind of data we want to store in them, since it is not going to occupy the same amount of memory to store a simple number than to store a single letter or a large number, and they are not going to be interpreted the same way. The memory in our computers is organized in bytes. A byte is the minimum amount of memory that we can manage in C++. A byte can store a relatively small amount of data: one single character or a small integer (generally an integer between 0 and 255). In addition, the computer can manipulate more complex data types that come from grouping several bytes, such as long numbers or non-integer numbers.

10. © Copyright 1992–2005 by Deitel & Associates, Inc. and Pearson Education Inc. All Rights Reserved. Fundamental Data Types (Cont.) The values of the columns Size and Range depend on the system the program is compiled for. The values shown above are those found on most 32-bit systems. For other systems, the general specification is that int has the natural size suggested by the system architecture (one "word") and the four integer types char, short, int and long must each one be at least as large as the one preceding it, with char being always one byte in size. The same applies to the floating point types float, double and long double, where each one must provide at least as much precision as the preceding one.

On May 2000 the stdint.h header file was added to the ANSI C standard library – “a set of typedefs that specify exact-width integer types, together with the defined minimum and maximum allowable values for each type, using macros.” http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stdint.hhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stdint.h As stdint.h is not shipped with Visual Studio C++ products prior to Visual Studio 2010, 3rd- party implementations are available.
