You declared a private constructor for the Lock class, in which it is only accessible either within that class or within a scope that has the right to access that Constructor. Also because you've defined a constructor there is no default/dummy constructor provided. Because First is a …

I think it was your do-while loop. Maybe the program misinterpreted the return 0 and was looking for a while loop. Consider your code-- [code=c++] int main(void) { do { cout << " Copyright 2001, Welcome to the Angle Finder Program. " << endl; cout << " This program is …

Your while statement is a recursively infinite loop. 10 will always be greater than 0, so will 9 then 8 then 7 then 6 then 5 then 4 then 3 then 2 then 1 but not zero. Because of this, the statement (while 1 > 0) keeps printing out CountDown(0) …
