Syntax
The syntax of a programming language specifies the rules for
creating a proper program in that language.

Rules of Variable
The name of a variable, its identifier, can be
composed of letters, digits, and the
underscore character.
Variable starts with
1. Character
2. Underscore ‘_’ (Not Recommended)
Variable
In a program every variable has
1. Name
2. Type
3. Size
4. Value
Assignment Operator
“=”
Assignment operator is a binary operator (a binary
operator has two operands).
Assign values to the two variables
Causes the value on the right to be assigned to the
variable on the left.
The = in C++ is equivalent to the := in Pascal or the = in
BASIC.
E.g. X = 5, X = 10 + 5, and X = X +1.
Data Types
A variable must have a data type associated with it, for example it
can have data types like integer, decimal numbers, characters etc.
The variable of type Integer stores integer values and a character
type variable stores character value. The primary difference between
various data types is their size in memory. Different data types have
different size in memory depending on the machine and compilers.
Five basic types
 int
 float
 double
 char
 void
