C programming question.?

Question

ok i have this program and it looks like this
main()
(
printf("hello, world/n");
)

That's how the book has it, so what should it look like because the compiler keeps saying that there are errors.

Answer 1

First you need the library include for printf.

You also put /n instead of \n

So the solution is:

#include

main()
{
printf("hello, world\n");
}

Answer 2

All answers above may still not work. Jullie has the closest right answer.

Cut and paste this code:

#include

int main(void)
{
printf("hello, world\n");
return 0;
}

Good luck,

Answer 3

I took a course and I did the same thing; I took examples straight from the book and they wouldn't compile. I think it was the program I had for compiling. I never found out because I didn't get another compiler.

One quick note...

Semi colons are big in programming. Make sure you have them in the right places and always have them in places that need them.

Answer 4

Can you please give more details, like what are the errors/warnings the compiler is giving.
The immediate issues I can see from your code,is you need to declare the header file(#include ) as you are using printf() stmt.
Some compilers may expect the return value parameter before main(), as you are not using the return stmt. at the then end of the main() block, you can use void main().

Answer 5

Change the parens to french curly brackets! I think, been a long time since I did C programming.

main()
{
printf("hello, world/n");
}

Haha! See how much I know. Listen to them.

Answer 6

I don't know much about C, but try it like this:

#include

void main()
{
printf("\nHello World\n");
}

I think you need the include at the top.

Answer 7

main
{
printf("hello, world \n");
}

Remember the braces and the \n.
You'll probably have to #include the standard I) library.

Answer 8

try putting the quotes .. world"/n) if that doesn't work, you might need to include a library file. look in the book for the right file you would need.

Answer 9

try this

int main()
{
printf("hello, world\n");
return 0;
}

Answer 10

Is that all you've written, or are there headers?
