C

• = is the assignment operator
  • read from right to left
• All variables need a data type
  • e.g., string, int, etc.
  • How we tell the computer how to interpret the binary
  • The compiler will error out if you mismatch types
• Case insensitive
  • In many languages it is common practice to have lowercase names. Lots of different styles exist, though.
• Libraries must be loaded to do things
• %s placeholder code for a string. This is a particularly common paradigm in languages.
