clog | An output stream to log program information |
cin | An input stream that reads keyboard input from the console by default |

wcerr | The same as cerr but outputs wide char (wchar_t ) data rather than char data |
wclog | The same as clog but outputs wide char (wchar_t ) data rather than char data |
wcin | The same as cin but interprets each input character as a wide char (wchar_t ) |
