I am asked to explain why Using namespace std is helpful in my own words.
Well, turns out, Using namespace std allows you to avoid from continuously typing the std:: by automatically using the namespace of standard for (calling?) purposes.
I’m not entirely certain that’s correct terminology, but I at least understand what it means. Feel free to correct me on that, I would like to also learn how to communicate this knowledge effectively with others using proper terminologies!
Hoooowever, Using namespace std , or really any namespace can also be bad. If your trying to use cout (Character out) in any other way than is defined by using the standard namespace, you’ll have a namespace clash, and there’s a very good chance, if not a 100% that you code will not work properly at that point.
I did my best to describe this, please let me know how I did if you want! Thanks everyone! Keep up the good work!
