Why won't this code compile?

[oscott]

#include<iostream>

int main()
{
int length;
std::cout << “\nPlease key in the length of your array”;
std::cin >> length;
int array[length];
return 0;
}


Thanks!

Array size has to be known at compile time i think
Itd be nice if you gave the error and used code tags

[tmrw]

You need to include " using namespace std; " before the main function and you need to declare the array before you refer to it.

That is not needed.

This is the issue.

It's not about the array.
Pasting the code to C::B gave a lot of errors related to characters encoding. I think they are the quotes and semicolons
