FUNCTIONS

A function must either be declared or defined before it is used. It may
be declared first and defined later. Every program consists of a set of
a set of global variable declarations and a set of function
definitions (possibly in separate files), one of which must be:
int main() { statements... } or
int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { statements... }
argv is an array of argc strings from the command line. By convention,
main returns status 0 if successful, 1 or higher for errors.
(overloading). Operators except :: . .* ?: may be overloaded. Precedence
order is not affected. New operators may not be created.
EXPRESSIONS
Operators are grouped by precedence, highest first. Unary operators and
assignment evaluate right to left. All others are left to right.
Precedence does not affect order of evaluation, which is undefined. There
are no run time checks for arrays out of bounds, invalid pointers, etc.
T::X // Name X defined in class T
N::X // Name X defined in namespace N

T(): x(1) {} // Constructor with initialization list
T(const T& t): x(t.x) {} // Copy constructor
T& operator=(const T& t) {x=t.x; return *this; } // Assignment operator
~T(); // Destructor (automatic cleanup routine)
explicit T(int a); // Allow t=T(3) but not t=3

int T::y = 2; // Initialization of static member (required)

class V: private T {}; // Inherited members of T become private
class W: public T, public U {}; // Multiple inheritance
class X: public virtual T {}; // Classes derived from X have base T directly
All classes have a default copy constructor, assignment operator, and
destructor, which perform the corresponding operations on each data member
and each base class as shown above. There is also a default no-argument
constructor (required to create arrays) if the class has no constructors.
Constructors, assignment, and destructors do not inherit.

template <class T, class U=T, int n=0> // Template with default parameters
NAMESPACES
namespace N {class T {};} // Hide name T
N::T t; // Use name T in namespace N
