what compiler are you using? Weird that it did not give you any file names or line numbers...

I recommend using a better compiler. Most modern compilers will tell you the line numbers where they think the error is occuring. These are not 100% accurate, but they do a much better job at it.

As for your errors, I would add a ; after the class declaration. This should sort the first error and potentially get rid of a couple of others too.

Edit: You probably pasted the error list from the IDE where it abstracts the line numbers because it shows where the error is when you click on the error message. If you are using such an IDE(VS?), it is simply a matter of following each error from the top. The errors for the most part are very descriptive. If you are having trouble understanding a specific one, you can tell us which one and we can explain what it means.

OK I compile it again and i get only grade.cpp(19): error C2533: 'studentre::{ctor}' : constructors not allowed a return type

[LaughingBelly]

We'd have to see your new code to figure out why it thinks your constructor is returning something.

Remember, constructors return nothing. So dont even specify void as return type.

[StormRonin]

this is the new code that is having the problem

#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;

class studentre
{
public:
	double quiz1,quiz2;
	double midterm;
    double final;
    double average;
private:
	studentre();
	void getgrade(double,double,double,double);
	void getaverage(double);
	void display();
}
studentre::studentre()
{
}
void studentre::getgrade(double quiz1a, double quiz2a,double midterma,double finala)
{
	quiz1a=quiz1/10;
	quiz2a=quiz2/10;
	midterma=midterm/100;
	finala=final/100;
}
void studentre::getaverage(double average)
{
	average = ( (midterm / 100) * .25 ) + ( ( quiz1/10 ) * .125 ) + ( ( quiz2/10 ) * .125 ) + ( ( final/100 ) * .50);
}
void studentre::display()
{
	cout<< "Your quiz one is"<<quiz1<<endl;
	cout<< "Your second Quiz is"<<quiz2<<endl;
	cout<<" Your midterm is"<<midterm<<endl;
	cout<<" Your final is"<<final<<endl;
	cout<<" Your average is"<<average<<endl;
}
int main()
{
	double quiz1,quiz2,midterm,final;

     cout<< "Enter first quiz mark: " << quiz1 <<endl;
     cin>>quiz1;
     cout<< "Enter second quiz mark: "<< quiz2<<endl;
     cin>>quiz2;
     cout<< "Enter midterm exam mark: "<<midterm<<endl;
     cin>>midterm;
     cout<< "Enter final exam mark: " << final<<endl;
     cin>>final;
     system ("pause");

 }

[LaughingBelly]

you are still missing the ; after the class declaration.

[StormRonin]

thanks you for your help I found it

[StormRonin]

I know have problem having the numbers that i put in in the main go into the class

#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;

class studentre
{
public:
	double quiz1,quiz2;
	double midterm;
    double final;
    double average;

	studentre();
	void getgrade(double,double,double,double);
	void getaverage(double);
	void display();
};
studentre::studentre()
{

}
void studentre::getgrade(double quiz1a, double quiz2a,double midterma,double finala)
{
	quiz1a=quiz1/10;
	quiz2a=quiz2/10;
	midterma=midterm/100;
	finala=final/100;
}
void studentre::getaverage(double average)
{
	average = ( (midterm / 100) * .25 ) + ( ( quiz1/10 ) * .125 ) + ( ( quiz2/10 ) * .125 ) + ( ( final/100 ) * .50);
}
void studentre::display()
{
	cout<< "Your quiz one is"<<quiz1<<endl;
	cout<< "Your second Quiz is"<<quiz2<<endl;
	cout<<" Your midterm is"<<midterm<<endl;
	cout<<" Your final is"<<final<<endl;
	cout<<" Your average is"<<average<<endl;
}
int main()
{
	studentre student;
	double quiz1,quiz2,midterm,final;
     cout<< "Enter first quiz mark: "<<endl;
     cin>>quiz1;
     cout<< "Enter second quiz mark: "<<endl;
     cin>>quiz2;
     cout<< "Enter midterm exam mark: "<<endl;
     cin>>midterm;
     cout<< "Enter final exam mark: " <<endl;
     cin>>final;
	 student.getgrade(quiz1,quiz2,midterm,final);
	 student.display();
     system ("pause");
