The object cout actually stands for 'console output'. EDIT: Bjarne Stroustrup: The "c" stands for "character" - http://www.stroustrup.com/bs_faq2.html#cout It is included in the <iostream> header and is used to print text to the console. E.g. cout << "Hello"; The above would print "Hello" to the console.

Cout is used to display information or data in the output and it supports the <iostream.h> header file.... Example:- #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { cout << "Hello world!"; return 0; }
