  <p>This is the code:</p>
  <pre><code>// first.cpp -- displays a message
  
  #include &lt;iostream&gt; // A PREPROCESSOR directive
  
  int main(void) // Function header

    using namespace std;
    cout &lt;&lt; &quot;Come up and C++ me sometime.\n&quot;;  // Message
  
    // Start a new line
    cout &lt;&lt; &quot;Here is the total: 1000.00\n&quot;;
