51 * The `<iostream>` header declares the eight *standard stream objects*.
52 * For other declarations, see

54 * and the @link iosfwd I/O forward declarations @endlink
56 * They are required by default to cooperate with the global C
57 * library's `FILE` streams, and to be available during program
58 * startup and termination. For more information, see the section of the
59 * manual linked to above.
