<P>The object <SAMP>cout</SAMP> controls output to a stream buffer associated with the object <SAMP>stdout</SAMP> declared in <SAMP><cstdio></SAMP>. By default the standard C and C++ streams are synchronized, but performance improvement can be achieved by using the <B><I><A HREF="ios-base.html">ios_base</A></I></B> member function <SAMP>synch_with_stdio</SAMP> to desynchronize them.</P>
|
|
<P>After the object <SAMP>cin</SAMP> is initialized, <SAMP>cin.tie()</SAMP> returns <SAMP>&cout</SAMP>, which implies that <SAMP>cin</SAMP> and <SAMP>cout</SAMP> are synchronized.</P>

|
|
<P>Keep in mind that while the manipulator <SAMP>endl</SAMP> flushes the stream buffer, outputting the character <SAMP>'\n'</SAMP> is <I>not</I> guaranteed to flush the stream buffer. You should output the <SAMP>'\n'</SAMP> character without <SAMP>endl</SAMP> only if you do not need the buffer flushed. Note that outputting the <SAMP>'\n'</SAMP> character in such cases, and hence not forcing a buffer flush, may result in a performance improvement. It greatly improves performance when C and C++ streams are not synchronized.</P>
