How to Ask A Programming Question

Anyone can ask a question in our programming channels. Following the guide Writing The Perfect Question is recommended.

What To Post

State your problem clearly and provide all necessary details:

  • the relevant portion of your code, or all of it
  • the expected output
  • the actual output (or the full error) 🏆 Gold Standard: Minimal Reproducible Example
Where To Post

Provide the relevant code in the message, and format it nicely with a code block*. If it's too much for one message, you can upload it:

  • Compiler Explorer for most C/C++ snippets
  • OnlineGDB for interaction, debugging ⛔ Do not post screenshots, let alone photos of your screen!
* Use /code if you don't know how to format code blocks

Bos-Mac-mini:Discord Bot Stuff bo-rocks$ cpp helloworld.cpp
clang: error: no such file or directory: 'helloworld.cpp'
clang: error: no input files
Bos-Mac-mini:Discord Bot Stuff bo-rocks$

i have that file tho

last bluff
#

do ls -l helloworld.cpp

#

check if clang has permissions to even read that file

#

so i type that in the terminal

#

bash command not found

#

@last bluff lemme just send a screen shot real quick that would be much easier

#

@last bluff there

#

@last bluff hello?

past ingot
#

so the file might not exist until it is saved

#

also you appear to be missing a }

Ok

bitter remnant
#

don't recommend using vs code or any other ide except for codeblocks

#

There are tons of linking problems that will come along as you learn c++

#

most of the time they're not beginner friendly

  1. Add a return type for main function (int main)
  2. Save the file
  3. Run the file (depending on your compiler)
