NOTE: for a fast copy, follow these steps in order:

Click anywhere in a text box below (result will be a blinking vertical line in the text box)
Hit ctrl + A on the key board (the "ctrl + A" means hit Ctrl and A at the same time)
(The result should be that all the text inside the text box lights up in blue)
Hit Ctrl + C (Nothing significantly happens that is visible) and now its copied to the clipboard and your ready to paste it anywhere

small char programs


The char can only hold ONE character. that character has to be inside single quotations.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
 char character = 't';

 cout << character;

 cin.get();
 return 0;
}


Initializing and assigning multiple variables
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
 char character = 't', ch2='~', ch3='|';

 cout << character << endl << ch2 << endl << ch3;

 cin.get();
 return 0;
}
