I''m getting a "parse error at end of input" for this simple program #include <iostream.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <string> #include <fstream.h> #include "Stack.h" int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { stack S(20); return 0; } I''m more curious what the main cause of parse errors is, rather than whats wrong with my code...I''m just learning so this will help me for future Thanks in advance

->What part of "Stack.h" gives the error?

Parse errors are caused by errors in your code's syntax. Missing ; are a major culprit of this. Misspelled variable and function names can cause them too (among other things).

BTW, iostream.h is NOT a standard C++ header. You should use < iostream > instead and add

 using namespace std;    

after your includes. < iostream.h > != < iostream >. In fact, VC .NET will complain loudly if you use iostream.h, saying that it's depricated.

Ditto fstream.h (replace with <fstream>, which, along with <iostream>, works with <string>). <cstdlib> instead of <stdlib.h>, and for anything other than learning purposes, use <stack>.
