Getting error 2001
« on: February 25, 2009, 03:02:30 PM »
hy, i'm new with pelles and c coding. I've got a program which you could change to your specific needs. It is used to make a magical square. Originally for a 4x4, but i changed it to 5x5.
Now i get a few errors:
Building victorian 5x5.obj.
C:\Documents and Settings\xxxxxx\Bureaublad\victorian 5x5.c(59): warning #2027: Missing prototype for 'exit'.
C:\Documents and Settings\xxxxxx\Bureaublad\victorian 5x5.c(61): warning #2096: Missing return value.
C:\Documents and Settings\xxxxxx\Bureaublad\victorian 5x5.c(218): error #2001: Syntax error: expected ';' but found 'if'.
C:\Documents and Settings\xxxxxx\Bureaublad\victorian 5x5.c(254): error #2001: Syntax error: expected ';' but found 'return'.
*** Error code: 1 ***
Done.


and this is the program(allready changed to 5x5)
Does someone know what to change to loose the errors?

Dant,

Your problem is that you are missing the ';' following your 'check()' macro in at least two places.

Code: [Select]
/* It is OK to check only three of each group of four tests. */

   /* The total som is 5*130 so if four tests succeed the fifth will also! */



   check( 1,  2,  3,  4, 5);

   check( 16, 17, 18, 19, 20);

   check( 21, 22, 33, 34, 35);
   
   check(37, 38, 39, 40, 41)  //<= OOPS

   /*check(42, 43, 44, 45, 46);*/

   

   check( 1,  16, 21, 37, 42 );

   check( 2, 17, 22, 38, 43);

   check( 3, 18, 33, 39, 44);

   check( 4, 19, 34, 40, 45)  //<= Oh Oh, not again!
   /*check( 5, 20, 35, 41, 46);*/


The giveaway with these type of errors is
Quote
C:\Documents and Settings\xxxxxx\Bureaublad\victorian 5x5.c(218): error #2001: Syntax error: expected ';' but found 'if'

Right away I look for a single line if without a statement termination.

Since these are usually obvious I immediately suspect a macro.

A quick glance at the code yielded the likely macro:

Code: [Select]
   #define check(a,b,c,d,e) if (ok) ok=(check130(a-1,b-1,c-1,d-1,e-1))

the rest quickly fell into place.

In C it is best to fix the first and / or second error that pops up and then recompile.  Usually the rest will go away.

One more thing.

When posting code using the insert code tool button "#" will give you the format tags to make the snippet easier to read.

DMac
