What's wrong with this program?

Could you tell me what's wrong with this program, it doesn't compile:

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;

class Everything
{
public:
static Everything* Instance()
{
if(instance==0)
instance=new Everything;
return instance;
}
const long double pi;
const long double e;
const long double phi;
private:
Everything():pi (3.14591),e(2.7 1828),phi(1.618 034){}
Everything(cons t Everything&);
Everything& operator=(const Everything&);
private:
static Everything* instance;
};
Everything* Everything::ins tance = 0;// initialize pointer

Everything* var=Instance();
int main()
{
long double* area(const long double& radius, const Everything* var);
long double rad;
cout << "Enter a radius: ";
cin >> rad;
long double* ret=area(rad,va r);
cout << "Area: " << *ret << endl;
delete ret;
system("PAUSE") ;
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
long double* area(const long double& radius, const Everything* var)
{
template<class T>T Exp(const T& base,long long exp);
long double* ret=new long double(var->pi*Exp<long double>(radius, 2));
return ret;
}
template<class T>
T Exp(const T& base,long long exp)
{
for(T i=1;exp>0;exp--)
i*=base;
return i;
}

Any suggestions? Thanks!!!

Could you tell me what's wrong with this program, it doesn't compile:


First I'll tell you what's wrong with your post. You posted
code, and only say 'it doesn't compile'. I think you've been
posting (and hopefully reading) here long enough to know that
that is not sufficient.

That said, I don't need to tell you what's wrong with the code,
my compiler (and yours) can. Mine says:

OK, I fixed some of the errors, but it still won't work. And how is
instance undeclared?

Code:

template<class T>
T Exp(const T& base,long long exp)
{
T i;
for(i=1;exp>0;e xp--)
i*=base;
return i;
}

long double* area(const long double& radius, const Everything* var)
{
long double* ret=new long double(var->pi*Exp<long double>(radius, 2));
return ret;
}

class Everything
{
public:
static Everything* Instance()
{
if(instance==0)
instance=new Everything;
return instance;
}
const long double pi;
const long double e;
const long double phi;
private:
Everything():pi (3.14591),e(2.7 1828),phi(1.618 034){}
Everything(cons t Everything&);
Everything& operator=(const Everything&);
private:
static Everything* instance;
};
Everything* Everything::ins tance = 0;// initialize pointer

Everything* var=Instance();
int main()
{
cout << "Enter a radius: ";
cin >> rad;
long double* ret=area(rad,va r);
cout << "Area: " << *ret << endl;
delete ret;
system("PAUSE") ;
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Could you tell me *exactly* hat's wrong, b/c my debugger is broken?
Thanks!!!

Instance() is a function declared inside your class.
Everything* var=Instance(); is trying to use a global Instance() which
doesn't exist.
That is how it's undeclared.

How? It's static!!!!

Never mind, I fixed that, now its saying that var is undeclared in the
area function and that's there's a missing semicolon and stuff.
Here's the code:

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;

template<class T>
T Exp(const T& base,long long exp)
{
T i;
for(i=1;exp>0;e xp--)
i*=base;
return i;
}

long double* area(const long double& radius, const Everything* var)
{
long double* ret=new long double((var->pi)*Exp<long double>(radius, 2));
return ret;
}

class Everything
{
public:
static Everything* Instance()
{
if(instance==0)
instance=new Everything;
return instance;
}
const long double pi;
const long double e;
const long double phi;
private:
Everything():pi (3.14591),e(2.7 1828),phi(1.618 034){}
Everything(cons t Everything&);
Everything& operator=(const Everything&);
private:
static Everything* instance;
};
Everything* Everything::ins tance = 0;// initialize pointer

Everything* var=Everything: :Instance();
int main()
{
cout << "Enter a radius: ";
long double rad;
cin >> rad;
long double* ret=area(rad,va r);
cout << "Area: " << *ret << endl;
delete ret;
system("PAUSE") ;
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Any suggestions? Thanks!!!

Yes, read your error messages and fix whey they tell you is broken.

The function "area" uses "Everything " and derefernces a variable of
that type without telling what "Everything " is. This is precisely what
the compiler complains about. Move the definition of "area" below the
definition of "Everything ".

That's completely irrelevant. Go back to your textbook
and read about 'scope'.

You need to give it scope:

Everything::Ins tance() is the correct way to call that funct.
