What is the difference between endl and the manual enter button?

Question

I know that endl creates a line break, but so does manually pressing the enter button. Does one take less space in the coding to use/compute than the other? Or does it not technically matter which one you use?

Answer 1

" endl flushes the output stream, while \n is simply a newline character. "

Answer 2

endl in an instruction to compiler for execution. pressing enter is your typing character.
It's like difference between writing and executing... is not it ?

Answer 3

You are right. I got confused, sorry 😅 I meant the difference between \n and endl - these are the two linebreakers right?
