    Question Resolution confusion

    I made the CAVE demo, a text game in C++. But i want it to automaticly switch to a full screen. I followed the tutorial, but it didn't work. I got 4 error, 2 of which were the real problems (2 where: #warning and {each unidentified...})
    I have the errors here:
    Code:
    #include <iostream.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    
    int main()
    {
    void SetMCGA() {
    
        _AX = 0x0013;
    
        geninterrupt (0x10);
    
      }
    
    }
    line 6: Parse error before {
    line 10: geninterrupt undeclared

    My game code is the next message, would someone please tell me how to make it work in that resolution?
    Or fix the code so that it does work, then post?
    Thank you!!!

    I am against the teaching of evolution in schools. I am also against widespread
    literacy and the refrigeration of food.
