Simple problem with vectors

TheEurekaMan (37)
I'm a CS1 student and we just started using vectors. I'm doing some practice problems from my book to help me better understand vectors. I needed to convert a program that the book had already written from arrays to vectors. When I did I came across this syntax error. I'm not sure how to correct it since this is my first time ever using vectors.

I'm using c++ 11

Here's the error:
|13|error: expected ',' or ';' before '{' token|

It should be :

     vector<int> pin1 {2, 4, 1, 8, 7, 9, 0}; // Base set of values.
     vector <int> pin2 {2, 4, 6, 8, 7, 9, 0}; // Only 1 element is different from pin1.

     vector <int> pin3 {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7}; // All elements are different from pin1.

I'm getting this error:


|13|error: in C++98 'pin1' must be initialized by constructor, not by '{...}'|

You are using C++11, not C++98

Yup that's why I'm confused.

Oh nevermind. I went back to check my settings and my compiler wasn't set to C++ 11. I think it's because I switched the colors recently and as a result my compiler settings reset. It works now, thanks!
