Why is this error message appearing?
From the last few days, I was trying to run a C++ program but the error is showing. I don't understand why. I changed the compiler settings after seeing a YouTube video. It was working until the file name was Main.cpp and when in the next program I gave another name it started showing the error. I do not understand how to read the error messages.
#include <iostream> //iostream allow us to load pre-built libraries.int main() // main function. Function in c++ is a block of code that does many things.{ std::cout << "Hello World ! This is my first C++ project" << std:: endl; std::cout << "This is Anish Sharma"; return 0;}Terminal -> Run Task... -> GCC compiler.
Then comes the error message:
