Cascading refers to the following style of calling multiple methods in a sequence:
someObject.firstMethod().secondMethod().thirdMethod();
For this to work, firstMethod() returns an object on which secondMethod() is called, and similarly this returns an object on which thirdMethod() is called.
A commonly seen instance of this is the overloaded stream insertion operator - i.e. operator<<() - in the standard library. For example, you can write:
std::cout << "The meaning of life is " << 42 << std::endl;
Each invocation of operator<<() returns the std::cout object, allowing an arbitrarily long sequence of calls to be chained together.
Here's an example of a class which supports such cascading:
class MyClass {private:int data;
public:MyClass(int initData) : data(initData) {}
MyClass goUp() {data++;return *this;}
MyClass goDown() {data--;return *this;} };
With the above definition, we can write
MyClass obj;
obj.goUp().goUp().goDown();
and so on.
println is not a C++ keyword.
If you mean the original name of C++, it was originally called "C with Classes". However, after the introduction of template metaprogramming, it was renamed C++ which meant "the successor to C".
'int' is one of the built-in data-types, it is meant to hold integer values.
There is no such thing. You probably meant the main function. The main function is the only function that is required as it serves as the entry point of the program.
C: there are no methods in C. C++: no.

space, tabs (horizontal and vertical), carriage return, line feed, form feed.
Cascading Waterfall was created in 1936.
b+b+b+c+c+c+c =3b+4c
c + c + 2c + c + c = 6c
b + b + b + c + c + c + c = 3b + 4c

4c
The cascading waterfall was a beautiful sight.
c + c + c + c + c = 5 * c.
