#include <iostream>

    int main(){

      int userInput;
      int inputAnother;

      std::cout << "enter a num : ";
      std::cin >> userInput;
      std::cout << "enter another: ";
                   std::cin >> inputAnother;

                   std::cout << userInput << "+" << inputAnother << "
is " << userInput+inputAnother << "\n";
                   std::cout << userInput << "-" << inputAnother << "
is " << userInput-inputAnother << "\n";

      return 0;
    }

>In emacs i got this indentation in a file. When i clicking tab it was
directly going 15 space forward after std::cout << "enter another: ";.
The situation persist in just one file. Any idea what did this happen?

C++ is white space insensitive, so I have ended up with similar code
when copying things out of, or deleting,  a nested block

Or when trying to indicate that the invented lined make sure kind of
unit of execution that perform a combined task.  Messy but guides the
eye a bit.

aligned.

You have to be kind against people political opinions. Not everyone is
libtard as like you
