Hi I've made a program but for some reason I am getting this error that I can't even begin to decipher because it won't point me to where the error has been made. I am using the PV=ZnRT formula.

Here is the error:


1>C:\Users\user\Documents\Visual Studio 2008\Projects\lab24jess\Debug\lab24jess.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals


Here is my program:

is there any more to the lnk1120 error message or was that all the compiler said? also please use code tags

Ya I was trying to edit my post with code tags but i don't know how or if it's possible...

here's the complete list of warnings and error:

ok code tags added :D thanks mod!

please try using namespace std; before main function. and let us know how it goes.....Thanks

Line 4 and 16 User_input is declared and used as accepting all double * parameters but

Line 24 void User_input (double *temp, double *mass, double *volume, double *Mmass, double Pc, double *Tc) the 5th parameter Pc is declare double not double *

I have fixed the pointer in my function however it is not properly calculating the Z...it should calculate until there is a repeatable Z, however it is not doing that...
