Thread: [Syntax errors] Single app errors?!
Started 1 month, 1 week ago by dmpm
I am new to programming so i dont really understand why this isn't working for me. Any help would be brilliant. I have been given an application to make. The application is: "Write a program to read the number of units of electricity used by a consumer, and to write out the total cost, assuming the following rates : a. 5.2 p per unit for the first 100 units, b. 3.0 p per ...

You should probably include standard libraries like this: #include <stdio.h> Besides that, please post the errors warnings you are getting. We cannot reproduce them since we can have different compilers (and compiler settings).

Ok, i will try adding that library, should i take the other libraries out or just add the new one? My errors are: Code: error C2065: '“please' : undeclared identifier error C2146: syntax error : missing ')' before identifier 'enter' error C2059: syntax error : ')' error C2065: '“' : undeclared identifier error C2065: 'd”' : undeclared identifier ...

There is no new library. I just suggested replacing your: #include "stdio.h" with #include <stdio.h> Although this is probably not your problem and I would actually recommend using #include <cstdio> but I am not sure if you are programming in C or C++. I see that you are using weird characters though. Do not use “ nor ” for quoting your string literals but use ...

Ok, thanks. The app ran when i changed from “ to " The application worked but the answer only flashes on then the application closes. What is the line i need to make it stay visible until a user presses a button? I tried what i thought it was but it has given me an error of: error C3861: 'system': identifier not found Anyway, this is what i thought it was Code: ...

If you program in C++ then forget about stdio.h. Try the C++ way with iostream. system( "PAUSE" ) is a non-portable way of doing it, plus it uses an ugly system call. I guess you'd have to include stdlib.h to make it work? Not sure.. In c++ I just use: #include <iostream> std::cin.get();

I have just tried: #include <iostream> std::cin.get(); Using "std::cin.get();" has not given me an error but has not solved my problem. I have tried "system( "PAUSE" );" again after including iostream and this has solved my problem. My final code looks like this: Code: // Electricity consumed.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console ...
