C++ Tokens

As mentioned earlier, C++ is the superset of C and so most constructs of C are legal in C++ with their meaning and usage unchanged. So tokens, expressions and data types are similar like that of C. It also is preferred to understand the concepts of C before learning C++. However there are some exceptions and additions in C++ which you will not get in C. In this chapter you will learn about what are tokens, and the different types of tokens, expressions, and basic data types.

What are Tokens

Each individual word and punctuation is referred to as a token in C++. Tokens are the smallest building block or smallest unit of a C++ program.
These following tokens are available in C++:
Identifiers: Identifiers are names given to different entries such as variables, structures and functions. Also identifier names should have to be unique because these entities are used in the execution of the program.
Keywords: Keywords is reserved words which have fixed meaning and its meaning cannot be changed. The meaning and working of these keywords are already known to the compiler. C++ has more numbers of keyword than C and those extra ones have special working capabilities.
Operators: C++ operator is a symbol that is used to perform mathematical or logical manipulations.
Constants: Constants are like variable, except that their value never changes during execution once defined.
Strings: Strings are objects that signify sequences of characters.

C++ Data Abstraction

C++ Data Abstraction Object oriented programming offers various features to write programs with various concepts that help to minimize problems and increase flexibility in program. One of the features of object oriented programming is Data abstraction. In this chapter you will learn about how the concept data abstraction is carried out within the C++ program. What is Data abstraction? Data abstraction allows a program to ignore the details of how a data type is represented. Abstraction (derived from a Latin word  abs , meaning away from and  trahere , meaning to draw) refers to the act of representing essential features without including the background details or explanations. C++ classes use the technique of abstraction and are defined as a list of abstract attributes such as width, cost, size etc and functions to operate on these attributes. They put in a nutshell all the essential properties of an object that are required to be created. The attributes are therefore called...
