Solve : Quick Course C++? |
|
Answer» I am doing a quick course on C++ and the book told me to build a program. d:\c++ weekend crash course\work\conversion.cpp(13) : error C2676: binary '>' : 'class istream_withassign' does not define this operator or a conversion to a type acceptable to the predefined operator The book is from 2000 and is called C++ Weekend Crash Course I am using Microsoft Visual 6.0 C++ Standard Edition What could that error possibly mean? I have looked on the Internet, but what I found made no sense to me. A friend of mine is doing the exact same with the same VERSION of Visal C++ and runs into the same error... Here is the program I am told to recreate.. Code: [Select]// // Program to convert temperature from Celsius degree // units into Fahrenheit degree units: // Fahrenheit = Celsius * (212 - 32)/100 + 32 // #include <stdio.h> #include <iostream.h> int main(int nNumberofArgs, char* pszArgs[]) { // enter the temperature in Celsius int nCelsius; cout << “Enter the temperature in Celsius:”; cin > nCelsius; // calculate conversion FACTOR for Celsius // to Fahrenheit int nFactor; nFactor = 212 - 32; // use conversion factor to convert Celsius // into Fahrenheit values int nFahrenheit; nFahrenheit = nFactor * nCelsius/100 + 32; // output the results cout << “Fahrenheit value is:”; cout << nFahrenheit; return 0; } Copied from a .PDF document into a forum.. The layout's a BIT.... messy now.Code: [Select] cin > nCelsius; Had to be Code: [Select] cin >> nCelsius; I wonder if they ever bother to DOUBLE check important things on SPELLING errors.. No wonder wars are started.As you've already found out.. a missing "" or ; can completely blow apart your app. Syntax is everything and spelling is huge. Happy learning.I am aware of that - however, this was not my fault: cin > instead of cin >> (The writer's Texan, and we all know what comes from Texas..)Quote this was not my fault A wise carpenter never blames his tools.Quote A wise carpenter never blames his tools. nice quote there Joleen Quote nice quote Indeed it is. As you'll probably know, Raptor and I frequently poke fun at each other both here and on MSN. No insult is intended except the friendly one found in any friendship.group hug |
