C++ examples for Language Basics:Variable
Defining variables on the fly, inside for, while, switch statement
#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() {/* ww w.j av a2 s .co m*/ { // Begin a new scope int q = 0; // C requires definitions here // Define at point of use: for(int i = 0; i < 100; i++) { q++; // q comes from a larger scope // Definition at the end of the scope: int p = 12; } int p = 1; // A different p } // End scope containing q & outer p cout << "Type characters:" << endl; while(char c = cin.get() != 'q') { cout << c << " wasn't it" << endl; if(char x = c == 'a' || c == 'b') cout << "You typed a or b" << endl; else cout << "You typed " << x << endl; } cout << "Type A, B, or C" << endl; switch(int i = cin.get()) { case 'A': cout << "Snap" << endl; break; case 'B': cout << "Crackle" << endl; break; case 'C': cout << "Pop" << endl; break; default: cout << "Not A, B or C!" << endl; } }
