It seems you are using an ancient compiler . Try using one of the modern, free ones, for example, VC ++ 2013 Express Edition. A more appropriate error message will appear:
fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'iostream.h' :
No such file or directory
When you fix this by changing <iostream.h>to <iostream>, you will get:
error C2065: 'cout' : undeclared identifier
, cout std::cout, :
warning C4305: 'argument' : truncation from 'double' to 'float'
1.23 1.23f.
