Re: [Dev-C++] Errorhandling

Hello all,

I'm a programming student currently in my C++ part 2 class.

Please tell me why the following code gives me errors with any of the three 
commented floating point formatting code un-commented? I get errors with 
three different compilers.

If anyone knows how to fix this please help. Or, if anyone knows another way 
to format floating point data please help.

Thanks,

Marton D. Rusk


#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>

using namespace std;

//cout << fixed << showpoint; //don't work

//cout.setf(ios::fixed, ios::floatfield); //don't work
//cout.setf(ios::showpoint);

//cout.setf(ios_base::fixed, ios_base::floatfield); //don't work
//cout.setf(ios_base::showpoint);

int main(){

float number = 3.57890;

cout << number;
return 0;
}
