Dear Class:

We will be looking in the book to Chapter 2. We will be starting the class by doing the "I can count" program. It is simple but you need to practice these programs to get them to work properly. Make sure you understand the five parts of the basic structure of a C++ program: 1) Compiler directive #include, 2) Main Function, 3) Braces to mark the beginning and end 4) Statement followed by a ; last statement is return 0; and 5) can also have comments which are ignored by the compiler but necessary to the programmer.

We will be talking about the five basic data types: int, Float, Double, char, and void. Assignment statements. These will be important in the developing an algorithm and coding the problem. This will take us into the first half of Chapter 2. We will look at this together!

Sincerely,
Mr. Green-Hite
