EXERCISES 2

1. Mark the following statements as true or false.

a. An identifier can be any sequence of digits and letters.
b. In C++, there is no difference between a reserved word and a predefined identifier.
c. A C++ identifier can start with a digit.
d. The operands of the modulus operator must be integers.
e. If a = 4; and b = 3;, then after the statement a = b; the value of b is still 3.
f. In the statement cin >> y;, y can only be an int or a double variable.
g. In an output statement, the newline character may be a part of the string.
h. The following is a legal C++ program:
int main()
{
return 0;
}
i. In a mixed expression, all the operands are converted to floating-point numbers.
j. Suppose x = 5. After the statement y = x++; executes, y is 5 and x is 6.
k. Suppose a = 5. After the statement ++a; executes, the value of a is still 5 because the value of the expression is not saved in another variable.
