    1) There is no code in the comments. All I see is a question, that has one answer. 2) What, exactly, is unclear to you?

  • @AlgirdasPreidžius sorry i made a stack overflow account like 20 min ago just to ask this, so im kinda confused on the whole website. it is actually the answer that you talked about is what im asking for analysis. also i kinda just need someone to tell me how the code is connected and working together, like what does void type_text do for the program. sorry for the confusion i have caused!

It's pretty straightforward:




  1. When the program runs, main() is called


  2. main() calls the function type_text(const std::string &) once


  3. type_text() iterates over the characters in the std::string that was passed in as an argument ("Hello, World!"). For each character in this string, it prints that character to the program's cout stream (a.k.a stdout), then flushes cout to makes sure the character actually will appear immediately in the user's terminal window, and then sleeps for 60 milliseconds.

  4. Once the for-loop has iterated over all of the characters, type_text() returns, then main() returns, and at that point the program's execution is complete.
