Introduction To Programming: Lesson 3

This document provides an introduction to programming variables and data types in C++. It defines what a variable is as a named location in memory that can hold a value. Variables must be declared with a data type like int, float, char etc. and can be assigned values using the assignment operator =. Arithmetic operators allow performing math operations on variables. Precedence rules determine the order that operations are performed.

Variable
Variable is the name of a location in the memory e.g. x= 2;

Variable
In a program a variable has: 1. Name 2. Type 3. Size 4. Value

Assignment Operator

Assignment Operator
L.H.S = R.H.S. X+ 3 = y + 4 Wrong
Z = x +4 x +4 = Z
