But maybe the problem is not you''re compiler (which do you use actually ?) , but your code (even if you got it from a book).

It''s Dev-c++ and it complains that "iostream.h doesn''t exist"
it''s probable a enviorment problem or something.

Does the following compile?

  #include <iostream>int main(){   std::cout << "Hello world";}  


Note the lack of the .h extension in the header, and the std:: prefix to cout.


For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can''t readily accept the God formula, the big answers don''t remain stone- written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command or faith a dictum. I am my own God. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us -- Charles Bukowski

Dev-C++ isn''t a compiler. It''s an IDE. It uses MingW to compile.
BTW: Dev-C++ is not crappy and if your simple program is not compiling then there''s about a 99.999% chance that it''s something YOU did wrong.
