when I begin a program I start with…

#include SDL.h

int main()(int argc, char*, arvg[])

{

but always get an error saying SDL.h is not in the series…does anyone have
a theory on this.

Hello !

when I begin a program I start with…

#include SDL.h

You must write it so :

#include “SDL.h”

int main()(int argc, char*, arvg[])

This is also wrong :

int main (int argc, char *argv [])

Strange error, but there are a couple things wrong with this…

#include SDL.h

int main()(int argc, char*, arvg[])

{

The SDL.h should be in “” or in <>, and there should only be two
arguments in main, it should look like this:

#include “SDL.h”

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
/*…main code */
return 0;
}

Hi,

Welcome to the world of C programming!

“Give a man a computer and you’ll frustrate him for a day, teach him to
program and you’ll frustrate him for LIFE!”

If you’re serious about learning to write C, invest in a copy of “The C
Programming Language” by Kernighan & Ritchie ISBN 0131103628. Will set
you back about ?20 / $40; money well-spent.

You may find that some compilers will complain if you write:

int main(int argc, char *argv[])

try

int main(int argc, char **argv)

instead (they actually mean the same). You don’t actually need the
parameters, unless you’re going to use them; when starting out, it is
perfectly acceptable to write:

int main()

but not

int main(void)

as this has a different meaning.

Jitsu Love,

Eddy

If so, the compiler is defective. Replace it with a newer compiler.
