C++ Streams: A Quick Example

#include <iostream.h>

main()

{

int a, b;

cout << "Please enter two numbers\n";

cin >> a >> b;

cout << "You entered the numbers " << a << " and " << b << '\n';

}

Please enter two numbers

6 4

You entered the numbers 6 and 4

• Note, formatted output (ala printf()) is possible but hard

• This is a good example of where a C++ purist will always use << and >>, but a pragmatist will just use printf().
