1. CH2 – Using Data

2. Constant Something which cannot be changed Data Type Format and size of a data item Intrinsic Data Types Pg. 47 – Table 2-1 Basic ones int, double, char, string, bool 5, 1.8 x 10 4, 0x0101, abcde, T or F

3. Variable Declaration Statement which names a variable and reserves storage for it Data type Identifier – begins with lowercase letter Optional initial value Ending ; Assignment Operator = ‘is assigned the value of the following expression’ Initialization Assignment made when variable is declared int classPeriod = 4;

6. Placeholder – A pair of curly brackets Contains a number indicating the position of the variable The list follows the string First position is 0 May display multiple variables within a single call May display the same variable multiple times Console.WriteLine (“The money is ${0} exactly”, someMoney); Turn to page 52 and create the program on the bottom. Name it DisplayVariables Where do the numbers align in your output?

7. Alignment – Where on the line the characters are displayed Default = right Negative field value = left Field Size Length of output field Console.WriteLine (“{0, 5}”, num1); Turn to page 85 and answer Review Questions 4 -5.

8. Integral Data Types Store whole numbers Byte, sbyte, short, ushort, int, uint, long, ulong, char Most basic is int Char – each letter has a numerical value to the computer int annualSalary = 20000;

10. Floating-point Number Contains decimal positions Significant digits – mathematical accuracy of the value Float – holds as many as seven significant digits of accuracy Double – holds 15 or 16 significant digits of accuracy Decimal – greater precision than float and double; smaller range Floating-point number is double by default Place an F after the number to keep it floating-point float pocketChange = 4.87F;

11. C# displays floating-point numbers in the most concise way while maintaining the correct value. Double myMoney = 14.00; Will be displayed as 14 since the 00 do nothing for the value Standard numeric format strings Strings of characters Enclosed within “ “ Specify output format Format specifier Pg 57 Table 2-2 Precision specifier Specifies the number of digits to the right of the decimal moneyString = someMoney.ToString (“F”);

12. 1. What does the 1 st WriteLine () display? 2. What does the 2 nd WriteLine () display? double someMoney = 123; string moneyString; moneyString = someMoney.ToString (“F”); Console.WriteLine (money.String); moneyString = someMoney.ToString (“F3”); Console.WriteLine (moneyString);

13. 1. What does the 1 st WriteLine () display? 2. What does the 2 nd WriteLine () display? double someMoney = 456789; string conversion; conversion = someValue.ToString (“C”); Console.WriteLine (conversion); conversion = someValue.ToString (“C2”); Console.WriteLine (conversion);

14. Binary operators Two arguments One value on each side of the operator Operator + = add - = subtraction * = multiplication / = division % = remainder / operator Results is always an integer45/2 = 22 Remainder is dropped % operator Results is the number of digits in the remainder45/2 = 1 2 “goes into” 45 22 times with a remainder of 1

15. PEMDAS is important. Use() to clarify operations order

16. counter = counter +1; = is used to assign values “Take the value of counter, add 1 to it, and assign the results to counter.” Add and assign operator += Adds the operand on the right to the operand on the left assigns the results to the operand on the left one step Subtract and assign operator -= Multiple and assign operator *= Divide and assign operator /=

17. Unary operators Used with only one operand Used to increase or decrease a variable by 1 Prefix increment operator ++ in front of the variable name Results calculated 1 st and then stored int someValue = 6; ++someValue; Postfix increment operator ++ at the end of the variable name Variable used 1 st and calculation is stored int someValue = 6; someValue++; Prefix decrement operator and postfix decrement operator subtracts 1 from the variable  Worsk like the increment operator
