Problem with this code for an example of a Class.

logana (14)
I am using Visual Studio, 2015, and need help with this C++ code. The aim is to show a basic example of a Class using it's own Header file and to return three values. This code we are not using #pragma, is that an issue?

I put the error message below.

Can anyone tell me why this is not Compiling?

BMI.h below:

I do not know how to add colour tags

Place your code within [code] [/code] tags. For example, the input
[code]int main() { std::cout << "Hello World\n"; }[/code]
Produces
int main() { std::cout << "Hello World\n"; }

Can anyone tell me why this is not Compiling?

Most likely, if you post the error messages!

Sorted, all I needed to do was go into Project, options> and click C++ >
pre-compiled header and select "Not using prec-compiled headers."
