Another compiling question

learning C++ , started in win on Dev cpp, and lost my comp for a while (tech difficalties ) got rid of the dual boot and now am on 12.04 lts, never compiled in linux and its frustrating hehe, i tried both c++ and g++

before i stoped i had made a small converting (non gui) app and it ran grt before (in a terminal) but .... well its going something like this

:~/cp$ c++ main.cpp -o main
main.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:
main.cpp:143:17: error: ‘system’ was not declared in this scope
main.cpp: At global scope:
main.cpp:308:1: error: ‘endl’ does not name a type

am lost on both errors *** i din't even know endl had types

this is the code
Code:
# include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int temps();
int heavy();
int main ()
{
float a;
char b;
float c;
float d;
float e;
float f;
float g;

ad 1: you forgot #include <cstdlib>
ad 2: I won't count your lines; please quote line#308 separately

PS: return main(): oh-no-no-no, use 'goto BEGIN' instead:

Code:
int main (void)
{
BEGIN:
/* tons of code */
goto BEGIN;
}

Every function need to be declared, "system" is declared in "stdlib.h" just include this file. But it probably not work as excepted, because Windows and Linux has different shells command, and pause may not exists on your system.

Quote:

And what it doing on the last line of your code?

Also you shouldn't invoke "return main()", because you probably created infinite loop with memory leak. If you want this behavior use "while(1)" or similar construct.

i got
:~/cp$ c++ main.cpp -o main
main.cpp: In function ‘int heavy()’:
main.cpp:307:6: error: label ‘BEGIN’ used but not defined

working on the functions .. guess i should just go over it all . any thing else you guys can see ???

and the last line 308 was endl
but i got rid
Code:
<<"**********************************************************************";
cin >> (q);     
}
goto BEGIN;
}

You probably forgot to define the label BEGIN: somewhere in your code.

IMHO, don't use "goto" in your code; it is considered bad practice. Use a while-loop, a for-loop, or a do-while-loop to achieve your goal.

Edit:

Code:
#include <iostream>

void bad_practice()
{
    int i = 0;

BEGIN:
    std::cout << "At the beginning..." << std::endl;
    if (++i < 5)
    {
        goto BEGIN;
    }
    std::cout << "At the end." << std::endl;
}

void good_practice()
{
    for (int i = 0; i < 5; ++i)
    {
        std::cout << "At the beginning..." << std::endl;
    }
    std::cout << "At the end." << std::endl;
}

int main()
{
    bad_practice();
    good_practice();
}

  1. A severe lack of indentation.
  2. Single letter variable names, you can and should use words.
  3. The brace around line 85 should go after the switch, not case.
  4. You have an empty pair of braces at the end of main() for no apparent reason.
  5. EVERY function ends with "return main();", WHY????

EDIT: it occurs to me that maybe you thought "return main();" means return to main(), actually it means, call main() and return its result to the caller. If you just want to return from a function, a plain "return;" will suffice (although it's redundant at the end of a void function).

hehe go easy on me ... does 1,2,4 and5 have to be corrected for it to function ? i would mostly like to just know am compiling the correct way so i can continue to learn .. i had no idea i had broken so many rules dev cpp din't seem to find any errors .

  • You don't need correct indentation, but it makes it much easier to see other errors (the only way I could see your other problems was to copy the code into Emacs and indent everything).
  • You don't need meaningful variable names, but it makes it much easier to see what the program is doing.
  • I think the empty pair of braces is harmless, but it's confusing.

About the "return main();"s, you can compile successfully with them, but your program will get stuck in an infinite loop overflow the stack at run time as mentioned by previous posters. I think you may have misunderstood what it means, see the EDIT in my previous post.
Last edited by ntubski; 10-17-2012 at 11:38 AM. Reason: return main(); won't really cause an infinite loop.

Number 5 is critical; the others are just aesthetics to make your code easier to read/maintain.

ok did some editing this morning .... MORE errors ...

:~/cp$ c++ main.cpp -o main
main.cpp:7:5: warning: extended initializer lists only available with -std=c++0x or -std=gnu++0x [enabled by default]
main.cpp:9:1: error: expected primary-expression before ‘float’
main.cpp:9:1: error: expected ‘}’ before ‘float’
main.cpp:9:1: error: expected ‘,’ or ‘;’ before ‘float’
main.cpp:23:1: error: ‘cout’ in namespace ‘std’ does not name a type
main.cpp:31:1: error: ‘cin’ does not name a type

i have spent a lot of time looking at these lines ,
9, 23 and 31. 7 doesn't seem to be something wrong with the code i just don't know what gnu++ox is ?? and how to enable it .

here is the revision

line 9:1

line 23:1

line 31 is similar to 23 so if i can figure out what am doing wrong there al prolly need to edit all my cout and cin ops ..
