Thread: l value required

Hi,

I had some of the issues referred to "lvalue required" in c++, but i could not find for my specific case.
I was trying to write a small code using "Type reference" concept.

Below is my simple code:

Code:

#include<iostream.h>
#include<conio.h>


int main()


{
 clrscr();
 int y1=5,y3=6;
 int & y2 = y1;


 cout << "y2 is "<< y2 <<endl<<" address of y2: "<< &y2 <<"\n";


 &y2 = &y3;


 cout << "y2 is "<< y2 <<endl<<" address of y2: "<< &y2 <<"\n";


 getch();
 return 0;
}

Now i get the error saying "lvaue required".
Could any one please help me on this?
