cout Output Stream
In C++, cout corresponds to stdout. You can work with cout like
this: cout<<x, where x is a data type or object, and << is the
overloaded left shift operator, also called the insertion operator
in C++. Note that cout is also an alias for ostream_withassign, and
that it is buffered.
Note: You can also chain the use of << and >> like this:
cout << "This is the value of x:" << x << "\n"; You do not
need to worry about the type of the arguments you pass
-- the << and >> operators are overloaded to handle all
standard types, and you can even overload them for your own
types.
In addition, you can format output with the cout.setf()
member function -- see Formatting for more details.
