Chapter 3, Problem 31RQE

Purpose of the given code:

The main purpose of the given code is to find the product of two numbers; the process involved is getting two numbers of data type integers from the user, then multiplying the given number with the value “50”, then the product gets displayed for the numbers after performing multiplication.

Syntax error:

An error which occurs on the source code of a program is referred as “syntax error” because the computer programs strictly follow the syntax rules.

• If the code fails to prove its language syntax format, then the compiler will throw errors.

List of errors identified in the given code:

The code that is given contains some syntax errors and those are listed as follows:

Error 1:

The definitions of the keywords are being defined in the header file.

“Line 1” of the program must contain the header file “#include<iostream>” which should not be terminated with a semicolon.

Error statement:

#include <iostream>;

Corrected statement:

#include <iostream>

Error 2:

Every program execution begins with a “main()” method which should contain a return type.

In “Line 3” the “main ()” method that is defined must hold a return type of integer.

Error statement:

main()

Corrected statement:

int main()

Error 3:

Every line in “C++” must be terminated using a semicolon “;”.

In “Line 6” and “Line 7”, the output statement is not terminated with a semicolon“;”.

Error statement:

cout << "them by 50 for you...
