### Data

For computer **data is just a sequence of ones and zeros**. We need to tell the computer how to interpret it whether it's a number, text, symbols, or maybe even a mix of different things. And in this course you will learn how to properly do it.

### Data Types

Basic data types include **integer types**, **floating-point types**, **character types**, and the **boolean type**. These types represent the most fundamental data elements, such as whole numbers, decimal numbers, characters, and true/false values.

In this course, we will explore each data type in detail, discussing their properties, usage, best practices and how they stored in memory!





Developing a comprehensive understanding of data types is crucial when learning a programming language. This course offers an opportunity to delve deeper into data types in C++, gaining insights into how they are stored in memory. Additionally, the course covers the topic of type conversion.

Provides a foundational overview of arithmetic operations and their pitfalls, data types, and the importance of specifying types.

short, int, long, float, double, etc. are all numerical data types. You will learn about all of them as well as the pitfalls they may conceal.

Covers working with text in C++ using `char` and `string`. You'll learn how to store and manipulate characters, use string methods, index and modify strings, find text, and understand string memory management. By the end, you'll be ready to handle text efficiently in your programs.

Covers logical values with bool, functions without return values using void, and automatic type deduction with auto. It also explores type conversion, including both implicit and explicit casting, ensuring correct handling of data types.
