I am very new to programmin and have just downloaded it.
I did the simple program that they give you in the tutorial but it will not compile, I have done others as well but none will do anything. Am I just missing something or am I doing something wrong? If you are not to busy, please respond. Thank you
What were the error messages you got when you tried to compile?
It dosn't give an error, It just won't compile. When I try to run it is says that this program is not compiled.
Congratulations, you've fallen at the first hurdle.
So I am just a really big idiot? Are you going to tell me why or just mock me?
Who knows, all I've got to go on is what you're telling me. If you've got one of bloodsheds new fangled IDE's you might need to scroll up a bit to obtain the error message. Nobody's gonna help without one of those (and before you think it, yes I'm on some big power trip).
Which compiler did you download?
devC++ 4.9.2.0
It dosen't give any error, but it does say that there are no input files. What that means, I have no clue. Which files is it talking about?
Did you actually type any code? Sounds like you opened Dev and just clicked "run program".
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int first=1;
int second=5;
int third=3;
int sum(first+second)*third;
printf("%d ",sum);
return 0;
}
Thisis what it told me to type, so I typed it. It told me to compile and run, so I compiled it and ran it. It told me it would do something, guess what. It did nothing.
I tried using the new release of Dev-C++, but I couldn't get it to work. Just download version 4.0 and it will work fine.
Ok I'll try that, Thanks.
Also you need to do
int sum = (first+second)*third;
or it won't compile.
Well thanks for the help, but I figured out the problem on my own. It was saving the file as a .h, all I had to do was save it as a CPP file and it will run just fine. That isn't bad is it?
>That isn't bad is it?
No, people enjoy having their time wasted.
You don't like newbies do you. Well tell you what maybe you should try not to help, if you are going to be rude.
