Dec 2, 2019 at 2:58 comment added Peter Cordes But std::endl isn't "ungolfed", it's just bad style / gratuitous flushing of cout even when that's not needed. endl is the same as << '\n' plus a flush; it's a different layer of stdio that handles conversion from \n to the native platform line ending (e.g. CRLF on DOS) for text streams. If you were golfing or optimizing, you'd put the first \n into the 2nd string literal: "\nSum of evens "
