What is the auto keyword in C++?
The auto keyword enables a variable’s declaration without specification of its data type.
#include <iostream>using namespace std;int main() {auto unknown_variable = "eleven";cout<< unknown_variable;}
The auto keyword is particularly useful with function calls, especially in cases where the function return type is not certain.
#include <iostream>using namespace std;double num_generator(){return 401.8;}int main() {auto unknown_variable = num_generator();cout<< unknown_variable;}
