    //code

    Why don't you compile it and see for yourself?
    Code:
    #include <cmath>
    #include <complex>
    bool euler_flip(bool value)
    {
        return std::pow
        (
            std::complex<float>(std::exp(1.0)), 
            std::complex<float>(0, 1) 
            * std::complex<float>(std::atan(1.0)
            *(1 << (value + 2)))
        ).real() < 0;
    }

    It means the compiler encountered an 'unexpected' character sequence. The easiest way to go about this is to strip everything down until you have something that compiles. First write a function that does nothing. Return a default value. If that compiles, try to set up an empty loop. If that compiles, add a bit of code little by little, compiling and printing values after every change. That's the basic idea, anyway. And above all, find good books, or online tutorials, and read them over and over until you actually understand the syntax, before actually attempting to write code.
    Code:
    #include <cmath>
    #include <complex>
    bool euler_flip(bool value)
    {
        return std::pow
        (
            std::complex<float>(std::exp(1.0)), 
            std::complex<float>(0, 1) 
            * std::complex<float>(std::atan(1.0)
            *(1 << (value + 2)))
        ).real() < 0;
    }
