Objects Types, Variables, and Constants 1 Chapter 3
Overview of C++ Statements 2 C++ Statements Declarations;Expressions; Other Objects Operations
Expressions In a C++ program, any finite sequence of objects and operations that combine to produce a value is called an expression. Examples from our temperature problem: 1.8 * celsius 1.8 * celsius Even: 1.8; 32; "Hello"; 1 + 1; ;;;; We focus now on C++ objects and will look at operations later. 1.8 fahrenheit = 1.8 * celsius + 32 Aside #1: expression ; is a statement.) Aside #2: expressions may be empty
Object Categories There are three kinds of objects: Literals: unnamed objects having a value ( 0, -3, 2.5, 2.998e8, 'A', "Hello\n",... ) Variables: named objects whose values can change during program execution Constants: named objects whose values cannot change during program execution 4 See Footnote on p. 48 Study §3.2 Have memory allocated to them
Literals – literals are integers: –int literals are integers: -27, 0, 4, +4 or E – There are just two bool literals: false, true 5 Enclose in ' Enclose in " – char literals are single characters: 'A', 'a', '9', '$', '?',... – string literals are sequences of characters: " Hello", "Goodbye", "Goodbye\n" 5 basic types literals are real numbers, and can be: –double literals are real numbers, and can be: fixed-point:,... fixed-point: , 0.5, 1.414,... floating-point:,... floating-point: 2.998e8, e9,... Not inter- changeable Some Variations: unsigned, long, short Variations: float, long double
Variable Declarations Examples: int idNumber; int age = 18; double celsius, kelvin = 0; cin >> celsius; double fahrenheit = 1.8 * celsius + 32; char letterGrade = 'A'; bool ok, done = false; 6 Declare only once Variables are used to store values, and can be either uninitialized or initialized. They must be before they are used. Variables are used to store values, and can be either uninitialized or initialized. They must be declared before they are used. Pattern: Pattern: type name; type name = expression; Allocates a memory location for values of this type and associates its address with name Not a declaration
Assignment Statements Examples: age = 19; celsius = 1.1 * celsius; letterGrade = 'B'; done = true; 7 Pattern: Pattern: name = expression; The value of a variable can be changed during execution by an assignment statement. Changes value in name's memory location to value of expression
Constant Declarations const char MIDDLE_INITIAL = 'A'; const string PROMPT = "Enter a number: "; 8 Pattern: Pattern: const type NAME = expression; Constants are used to represent a value with a meaningful name, and must be initialized. They cannot be changed later. Could use in Proj. 1.3 Examples: const int MAX_SCORE = 100; const double PI = ; Allocates a memory location for values of this type, associates its address with NAME, puts value of expression in it, and locks it.
Identifiers The name of an object is called an (because it identifies the object). The name of an object is called an identifier (because it identifies the object). C++ identifiers must begin with a letter (underscores are permitted, but discouraged) followed by zero or more letters, digits or underscores. Valid:,... Valid: age, r2d2, myGPA, MAX_SCORE,... Invalid:,... Invalid: 123go, coffee-time, sam's, $name,... 9 May not be C++ keywords (See Appendix B) See slide 24
Conventions We will use the following commonly-used convention to keep variable and constant objects distinct. Constant names: all uppercase, with multiple words separated by underscores (e.g., )Constant names: all uppercase, with multiple words separated by underscores (e.g., MAX_SCORE ) Variable names: all lowercase, but the first letter of each word after the first capitalized (e.g., )Variable names: all lowercase, but the first letter of each word after the first capitalized (e.g., lastName ) 10 Use meaningful identifiers for readability! “camelback” notation
Represented in memory by a code. – –ASCII uses 8 bits (1 byte) to represent a character, allowing for 2 8 = 256 different characters. Objects char Objects 'a' = 97 = '0' = 48 = p. 61 App. A Java chars can be treated as small integers; e.g,. char ch1 = 'A', ch2; int x = 2*ch1 + 1; ch2 = ch1 + 1; cout << x << ' ' << ch2 << '\n'; Output? 131 B = Most used code is ASCII: Most commonly used code is ASCII: 'A' = –Unicode's first version used 16 bits to represent a character, allowing for 2 16 = 65,536 different characters. Now, 16, 24, or 32 bits. See Other Course Information class page
Escape Characters C++ provides a number of : C++ provides a number of escape characters: 12 '\n' newline character '\t' horizontal tab '\v' vertical tab '\f' form feed '\a' alert/bell '\\' backslash char '\'' apostrophe '\"' double quote '\ooo' char with octal code ooo '\xhhh' char with hex code hhh See Appendix A
Objects int Objects Three forms: –decimal (base-10): begin with a digit or sign (-45, -2, 0, +21, 36, 65536,...) –decimal (base-10): 0 or begin with a nonzero digit or sign (-45, -2, 0, +21, 36, 65536,...) –octal (base-8): begin with a followed by digits (01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, –octal (base-8): begin with a 0 followed by octal digits (01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 010, 011, 012,..., 017, 020, 021, …) 0xa, 0xb, 0xc, 0xd, 0xe, 0xf, 0x10, 0x11,...) –hexadecimal (base-16): begin with followed by digits with a, b, c, d, e, f = 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 (0x1, 0x2,..., 0x7, 0x8, 0x9, –hexadecimal (base-16): begin with 0x followed by digits with a, b, c, d, e, f = 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 (0x1, 0x2,..., 0x7, 0x8, 0x9, 13 See second item on Other Course Information class page
Objects unsigned Objects For objects whose values are never negative, C++ provides the unsigned type. They also may be expressed in decimal, octal, and hexadecimal forms. The major advantage of using unsigned instead of int when values being processed are known to be nonnegative is that larger values can be stored. 14
Ranges of Integer Values Using 32 bits, int values range from ( ) to ( ); unsigned values range from 0 to ( ). An int value "loses" one of its bits to the sign, and so the maximum int value is about half of the maximum unsigned value. 15 INT_MIN defines INT_MIN, INT_MAX, UINT_MAX, and other constants that specify ranges of C++ integers; does this for C++ real values. (See App. D) UINT_MAXINT_MAX
16 //-- Program to demonstrate the effects of overflow #include using namespace std; int main() { int number = 2; for (int i = 1; i <= 15; i = i + 1) { cout << number << '\n'; number = 10 * number; } Output: Strange Behavior of Integer Overflowoverflow Overflow: when a value gets out of range; for example, an integer exceeds INT_MAX = =
17 //-- Program to demonstrate the modular "wrap-around" effect of overflow #include using namespace std; int main() { int number = INT_MAX - 3; for (int i = 1; i <= 7; i = i + 1) { cout << number << '\n'; number = number + 1; } Output: Why this strange behavior? Check INT_MAX + 1, INT_MAX + 2,... INT_MAX INT_MIN Arithmetic is modular INT_MIN... INT_MAX
Representation int Representation Integers are often represented internally in the format, where the high- order (leftmost) bit indicates the number’s sign: twos-complement format, where the high- order (leftmost) bit indicates the number’s sign: 2 10 = = = = = Here we show 16 bits, but 32 or 64 are more common. 18 Sec. 3.3
Two's-Complement To find twos-complement representation of a negative number (e.g., -12): Represent its absolute value in binary: ( ) ( ) Invert (complement) the bits: ( ) ( ) Add 1 19 ( ) ( ) Simpler: Flip all bits to the left of rightmost 1. Stop here for nonnegative numbers Try practice exercises — Week 3 of schedule
* : –6: carry bits Why Use Two's Complement? Because usual algorithms for +, * work!
Objects double Objects = sign (1 bit) mantissa (52 bits) exponent (11 bits) Real values are often represented in 64 bits using the IEEE floating point standard: 5.75 = See Ch. 3, pp float (single precision): bias = 127; exponent: 8 bits mantissa: 23 bits Try practice exercises on course schedule "bias" +
22 //-- Effect of roundoff error #include using namespace std; int main() { for (double x = 0; x != 50.0; x = x + 0.1) { doouble y = x * sqrt(1 + sin(x)); cout << x << " " << y << '\n'; //if (x > 60) break; } Execution: So they can't be stored exactly; error in this representation is called roundoff error.

24 The name of the song is called "Haddocks' Eyes". "Oh, that's the name of the song, is it?" Alice said, trying to feel interested. "No, you don't understand," the Knight said, looking a little vexed. "That's what the name is called. The name really is 'The Aged Aged Man'." 'Then I ought to have said, "That's what the song is called"?' Alice corrected herself. "No, you oughtn't: that's quite another thing! The song is called 'Ways and Means': but that's only what it's called, you know!" "Well, what is the song, then?" said Alice, who was by this time completely bewildered. "I was coming to that," the Knight said. "The song really is 'A-Sitting On a Gate': and the tune's my own invention." Lewis Carroll, Through The Looking Glass The name of the student's letter grade is called " letterGrade." "Oh, that's the name of the student's letter grade, is it?" Alice said, trying to feel interested. "No, you don't understand," the Knight said, looking a little vexed. "That's what the name is called. The name really is 0x123abc, a memory location that stores the student's letter grade." 'Then I ought to have said, "The student's letter grade is 0x123abc"? Alice corrected herself. "No, you oughtn't: that's quite another thing! The student's letter grade is called 'A': but that's only what it's called, you know!" "Well, what is the letter grade, then?" said Alice, who was by this time completely bewildered. "I was coming to that," the Knight said. "The student's letter grade really is and it's my own initialization."
