+C++ Notes
+
+## 1 Requirements
+
+This tutorial is based on C++11. Make sure you are using the latest IDE's - XCode (Mac) or Visual Studio (Windows). You can use other IDE's but make sure it supports the latest C++ version.
+
+### 1.1 Mac
+
+**Adding files to Xcode**
+
+1. Download Xcode from the App Store.
+2. Open Xcode application and click on `File > New > Workspace...`.
+3. Name the `Workspace` as `CPP-Notes`.
+4. Click on the `+` sign and then click on `Add Files to "CPP-Notes"...`
+  ![Add files to workspace](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/akshaybabloo/CPP-Notes/master/Screenshots/xcode-workspace.png)
+
+**Creating Project**
+
+1. Click on the `+` sign and then click on `New Project...`
+  ![Creating a Project to Workspace](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/akshaybabloo/CPP-Notes/master/Screenshots/xcode-create-project.png)
+2. Under `OSX > Application` select `Command Line Tool` and click next. In that, type in the name of the product and make sure you select the language as `C++`.
+  ![Selecting command line tools](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/akshaybabloo/CPP-Notes/master/Screenshots/xcode-create-project-1.png)
+3. Save it where every you want.
+
+### 1.2 Windows
+
+1. Go to [https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/visual-studio-homepage-vs.aspx](https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/visual-studio-homepage-vs.aspx) and download `Visual Studio Community` version. Make sure `Visual C++` package is selected and continue the installation.
+2. Once installed, Click on `File > New > Project` or use the shortcut `Ctrl + Shift + N`.
+  ![Visual Studio New Project](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/akshaybabloo/CPP-Notes/master/Screenshots/vs-new-project.png)
+3. We are adding the preprocessing variable because of the way Microsoft has written its c++ compiler.  For that to happen, we are creating a C++ file. Under `Solution Explorer` right click on `Source Files > Add > New Item...` name it as `test.cpp` and type int he following:
+  ```cpp
+  #include <cstdio>
+
+  using namespace std;
+
+  int main(int argc, char ** argv) {
+      puts("hello");
+      return 0;
+  }  
+  ```
+  From the menubar click on `Build > Build Solution`
+4. Under Solution Explorer, right click on `CPP > Properties`
+  ![Visual Studio Project Property](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/akshaybabloo/CPP-Notes/master/Screenshots/vs-project-property.png)
+  As shown in the image above click on `<Edit...>`. In the text box type in the following:
+  ```
+  _CRT_SECURE_NO_WARNINGS
+  _HAS_ITERATOR_DEBUGGING=0
+  ```
+  Click on `OK`
+
+**Running the CPP files**
+
+1. Open your command prompt, by doing `WINDOWS + R` and type in `cmd`.
+2. To run the built `test.cpp`, you would have to go to the project folder `CPP > Build > CPP.exe`. Drag and drop `CPP.exe` on the command prompt the press `Enter`, this will output `hello`.
+
+## 2 Basics
+
+C++ inherits most of its code style from C language, but both are very different from each other. Lets consider an example:
+
+```cpp
+// This is a comment
+
+/*
+  This is a block code.
+*/
+#include <cstdio> //<- Libraries
+#include <iostream>
+
+using namespace std; //<- scope to identifiers
+
+int main(int argc, char ** argv) {
+  puts("hello"); // this statement outputs hello with a new line
+  printf("hello\n"); // this is similar to puts but doesn't end with new line
+  cout << "hello\n"; // more complex way to output without new line
+  return 0; // 0 means success
+}
+```
+
+A C++ program can also be written like this (thought I wouldn't recommend it):
+
+```cpp
+#include <cstdio>
+using namespace std;
+
+int
+main
+(
+int
+argc,
+char
+**
+argv) {
+puts("
+hello")
+  ;
+  return 0;
+}
+```
+
+**Things to remember**
+
+1. A statement should always end with `;`.
+2. `#Include` should always be in single line with out any space followed by `<>` or `""`.
+
+### 2.1 Identifiers
+
+C++ follows standard [ISO Latin Alphabets](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_basic_Latin_alphabet), [Western arabic numbers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arabic_numerals) and [ASCII Underscore](http://www.theasciicode.com.ar/ascii-printable-characters/underscore-understrike-underbar-low-line-ascii-code-95.html). These identifiers cannot conflict with C++ 86 keywords (which includes 11 tokens)
