#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
cout << "Hello World!";
return 0;
}
// Line 1: #include <iostream> is a header file library that lets us work with input and output objects, such as
// cout (used in line 5). Header files add functionality to C++ programs.
// Line 2: using namespace std means that we can use names for objects and variables from the standard library.
// Line 3: A blank line. C++ ignores white space. But we use it to make the code more readable.
// Line 4: Another thing that always appear in a C++ program is int main(). This is called a function. Any code
// inside its curly brackets {} will be executed.
// Line 5: cout (pronounced "see-out") is an object used together with the insertion operator (<<) to output/print
// text. In our example, it will output "Hello World!".
// Note: Every C++ statement ends with a semicolon ;.
// Note: The body of int main() could also been written as:
// int main () { cout << "Hello World! "; return 0; }
// Remember: The compiler ignores white spaces. However, multiple lines makes the code more readable.
// Line 6: return 0 ends the main function.
// Line 7: Do not forget to add the closing curly bracket } to actually end the main function.
