need help with problem

[alain]

Hi,

I have been trying to compile this code with no avail.
I am using windows XP. It's a long code but I have posted the first part of it
below:

include <iostream>

include <cmath>

include <fstream>

using namespace std;

struct geometricalshapes { // subroutine for assigning values to the particle
geometrical shapes
float side1, side2, side3, side4, side5;
float angle1, angle2, angle3, angle4, angle5;
float height, base, centroidx, centroidy, momentofinertiax, momentofinertiay,
area;

};

float ddamping_coefficient, dk;
double dstiffness_coefficient;
double dtime_increment;
float dmass;
float ii; // mass moment of inertia
float dresult;

int main ()

{
geometricalshapes righttriangle; //the particle
righttriangle.side1 = 4.243;
righttriangle.side2 = 3;
righttriangle.side3 = 3;
righttriangle.angle1 = 45;
righttriangle.angle2 = 45;
righttriangle.angle3 = 90;
righttriangle.height = 2.12;
righttriangle.base = 4.243;
righttriangle.centroidx = 0;
righttriangle.centroidy = 0.707;
righttriangle.momentofinertiax = 1.123;
righttriangle.momentofinertiay = 3.374;
righttriangle.area = 4.498;

}}

The error statement is the following:

Compiler: Default compiler
Executing g++.exe...
g++.exe "C:\Dev-Cpp\my-project.cpp" -o "C:\Dev-Cpp\my-project.exe" -I"C:\Dev-
Cpp\lib\gcc\mingw32\3.4.2\include" -I"C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\3.4.2\backward"
-I"C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\3.4.2\mingw32" -I"C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\3.4.2" -I"C
:\Dev-Cpp\include" -L"C:\Dev-Cpp\lib"
C:\Dev-Cpp\my-project.cpp:42: error: expected declaration before '}' token

Execution terminated

This error statement applies to the last line posted (with double curly
brackets) I have tried removing one or both brackets but the errors only
increased.

I appreciate any help...

Remove the second brace you know is wrong and start fixing your mistakes.

runninng w7 and c++ 4.9.9.2. the part you display shows no compiller problem
reports, but notting else shows either. what was the idea of the code ?
