What is the "/n" meaning in C++

Hi Rebeca,

‘/n’ in c++ is a constant meaning "newline"

It can be used when you want to break a sentence so that the next word starts in a new paragraph i.e new line. Something to know about \n is that it does not flush the output bufferBelow is an example of how you can use it while writing your code:

#include <iostream> 

int main(void)
{
  std::cout <<"Testing 1" <<std::endl;
  std::cout <<"Testing 2\n";
}

/*
 * Program output:
 Testing 1
 Testing 2

 *
 */

I hope this helps you :)

Hi Rebecca

   The meaning of "/n" in C++ is a NewLine Character  Ie It Causes the next lot of output to start on the next line down

 This applies to output to printer,or  screen   Example  printf ("Some sort of string of chars  /n/n  A new line of Characters to print or display )

Will Display/print as follows

Some sort of string of chars
A new line of Characters to print or display

Syntax Print/Printf/( ...../n ...) or any function that send optput to the screen or printing device

Can be used on it own or in conjunction with any printable or displayable data and as many time as required

Hi Rebecca

TIn C++ the "/n" is the Newline or Carrage Return Character

When you output data and include the "/n" It instructs the cursor or printer  to move to the beginning of the next line 

Example

void main

[  stdout ""your first line "

  stdout " your second l/n and third line"

}

output

your First line
your second line
and third line

The about applies to all functions that display or print output ie printf, print etc

I hope this is helpful
