Unit 3: Object-Oriented Programming in C++

3.2.1 C++ Constants and Variables

Constant:

• A constant is a quantity that cannot be changed during program execution.
• It can be a number, a character, or a character string. A character string is a sequence of any number of characters.
• Examples: 42, 7.25, ‘s’, “computer” etc.

Variable:

• A quantity whose value may change during the execution of the program is called a variable.
• A variable is a space in a computer’s memory, used to store data and given a name for easy reference. OR
• In C language, a variable is a memory location that is identified by a name to store a data of particular type.

Rules for Naming a Variable:

Following are the rules for naming variables in C:

1. A variable name may consist of digits, upper case, and lower case alphabets, and underscore symbols i.e. “_”
2. The first character of a variable name must be an alphabet character or underscore.
3. Keywords/Reserved words of C++ cannot be used as variable names.
4. Special symbols such as $, @, %, #, etc. are not allowed.
5. Two variables cannot be of the same name.
6. C is a case-sensitive language. Variable names with the same spelling but different cases are treated as different variable names.
7.  A meaningful name should be given to the variable which can help to understand the purpose of the variable.
8. Blank space or comma is not allowed.
