C++ program HELP this is not compiling?
the carrot is not a C++ operator, this line is invalid:


d = (b^2) - (4ac);


you can't imply multiplication that way. you have to use an astrix also.


The compiler thinks it's a number when it sees a number starting a string with no spaces.


you should try


d = pow(b,2) - 4 * a * c;
Reply:It has been a while since I programmed in C++, but I will try to help. I remember how frustrating it can be to debug!





using std::fixed (needs a ;)





cout %26lt;%26lt; "Zero divide."; (don't think it needs ;)


(cause it's part of if else)





cout %26lt;%26lt; fixed; (not sure about this)


cout.precision (3); (fixed is not a defined )


(variable)








It looks like there is more to the program. Let me know if this helps or you need me to look at more of it.
