#include <iostream> // Preprocessor command that inserts the iostream file from the C++ standard library.
using namespace std; // Tells the compiler that the iostream file is located in the std namespace

// int tells the compiler that an integer data type will be returned by the function.
// Main function that drives the other functions. This function begins all C++ programs.
int main() 
{
 cout << "Hello World!"; // cout sends data to the standard output display device (usually the screen)
 
 return 0;   
} // Curly brace closes out the function's statement
