I'm using a C++ Beginners Tutorial and it's going great so far, at least until I got to the hands-on simple program making part.
I did what it said. But it was very vague. The reason it was vague, is because compilers use many different programs to compile things, so it couldn't give general instructions.
I'm using Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition and no matter what I do, It says failed when I'm done.

Code:
/*
	This is a simple C++ program.
	Call this file Sample.cpp.
*/

#include <ionstream>
using namespace std;

// A C++ program begins at main()
int main()
{
	cout << "C++ is power programming.";

	return 0;
}
I put this in the source files and I have tried both compiling my whole project (all the other files are empty)
and compiling just this file.
Nothing works.

edit: I looked at the output and it said:
Fatal Error: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'ionstream': No such file or directory
But the tutorial said that was necessary/useful for the program to work.
I'm so confused.

I figured out the problem. It was a simple misspelling of <iostream>
plz delete this -.-;
