Unknown C++ compile error

I just started out with C++ and I am writing the program http://newdata.box.sk/bx/c/htm/ch01.htm#Heading26 under excercise 1. I have tried compiling it but it gives errors:


C:\Borland\BCC55\Bin>bcc32 hello.cpp
Borland C++ 5.5.1 for Win32 Copyright (c) 1993, 2000 Borland
hello.cpp:
Error E2379 hello.cpp 6: Statement missing ; in function main()
Error E2379 hello.cpp 8: Statement missing ; in function main()
*** 2 errors in Compile ***

Here is what is in the program:

#include <iostream.h>
int main()
{
int x = 5;
int y = 7;
cout "\n";
cout << x + y << " " << x * y;
cout "\n";
return 0;
}

Can someone tell me what is going on. I am using the free Borland C/C++ compiler.

 

In order to perform a formatted output use the << after cout. Also you can use endl for the end of line terminator. For example:

cout << endl ;

See: http://www.cplusplus.com/ref/iostream/ostream/operatorltlt.html

 

For the future, please use code tags, just for any code. it realy helps..

Code:

int Othello::CheckDir(int x, int y, int modX, int modY, int cnt)
{
int result;
x += modX;
y += modY;
if ( (  x > 0 ) && ( x   < BOARD_SIZE)  && ( y  > 0) && (y + modY < BOARD_SIZE) )
{
	if (theBoard[x][y] == blank) 
		return 0;
	else
	if( theBoard[x][y] != currentPlayer  )
	{
		result = CheckDir(x,y,modX, modY, cnt+ 1);
		if ( result > 0 && !testing)
		{
			if (currentPlayer == white)
			{
				theBoard[x][y] = white;
			}
			else
			{
				theBoard[x][y] = black;
			}
		
		
		}
		return result;
	}
	else
		return cnt;
}
else
	return 0;


}

compared too

int Othello::CheckDir(int x, int y, int modX, int modY, int cnt)
{
int result;
x += modX;
y += modY;
if ( ( x > 0 ) && ( x < BOARD_SIZE) && ( y > 0) && (y + modY < BOARD_SIZE) )
{
if (theBoard[x][y] == blank)
return 0;
else
if( theBoard[x][y] != currentPlayer )
{
result = CheckDir(x,y,modX, modY, cnt+ 1);
if ( result > 0 && !testing)
{
if (currentPlayer == white)
{
theBoard[x][y] = white;
}
else
{
theBoard[x][y] = black;
}


}
return result;
}
else
return cnt;
}
else
return 0;


}
thanks.
