it does not compile in bloodshed.... any help??

Please edit your post and add code tags, and provide the errors your compiler emitted.

cout << "***********************************\n" "* john doe *\n" "* Project 8 \n" "***********************************\n\n";

I learned today that you can use this format with cout.

That's not cout exactly, it's just the pre-processor or compiler (don't remember which) will automatically concatenate strings like that together for you.

I'm not sure what you mean by code tags. When I compile it opens up a file that I never call nor open. I think it is called ios_base.h or something like that. If you just copy and paste it into bloodshed it does this on an system I have never used a .hfile
