C++ Programming

• Write code for readability, maintainability, efficiency, and robustness.
• Store computed results in variables before formatting and displaying them.
• When Microsoft Visual C++ warns about functions such as strcpy, understand the safer alternatives first. Legacy exercises may require _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS.
• Compare floating-point values with an appropriate tolerance instead of exact equality.
• Use std::fixed, std::setprecision, and related <iomanip> tools to control numeric output.

Programming Style

• C++ Best Practices Common C++ programming practices and code-quality guidance
• Naming Conventions Naming conventions for variables, functions, classes, and other identifiers
