Ok, since you should have a basic understanding of Outpu, and got bored with it by now. I will go over basic input.
Bare with me here, I'm busying learning this language and TCP/IP ( and learning more about linux )..


Ok
I gope you remember the comment "//" "/* .... */" . If not look back on them.



#include <iostream.h> // don't worry about this yet.

int main() // or this, lol
{ // opening brace

int a; // our variable that we shall use

cout << " Enter a number to be shown on the screen : \t";

/* the "\t" means TAB, just like "\n" means new line */

cin >> a; // this ask for input by you, to set the value of a

/* notic the differenc between the cout "<<" and the cin ">>", << directs the message to output, and >> recieves the input by you. If i'm wrong onthis please correct me. But it isn't that important as long as you keep them right, and not mix them up */

cout << a << endl; // outputs the value of a

return 0;
} // end of program


remember to end all statements with a semi-colon " ; "


Now I will write the code out with no comments.

#include <iostream.h>

int main()
{
int a;
cout << "Enter a number to be shown on the screen : \t";
cin >> a;
cout << a << endl;

return 0;
}


ok well maybe this will help you all. I must go back to my learning now. If you all would still like some more tutorials, reply.

And remmeber, anyone can add on to this.

Later
MR
