How to call a template class method?

i've just learned class templates and have began to experiment with them, but the question is: how to i call them correctly? i keep getting three errors: -could not deduce template argument for 'A' -expects 0 arguments - 1 provided - no instance of function template "calculator<C>::addition [with C=int]" matches the argument list my source code: https://code.sololearn.com/cgTc8vXvfHG8

If you had just used the type C everywhere, it would have been fine. But you have used templates further in your class methods, and plus,you have used different names. Thus, the compiler expects that it is to return a new type and this type must be specified by you before use of that function. So, to call operation : user.operation<int>(). And now you may use the returned value. But, since the type O may not be equal to A,S,M or D in the operations, you will have to change your function calls to: cout<<"The sum of the two numbers is - "<<addition<O>()<<endl; And so on for the others. And Don't forget the braces after the <O>. ( '(' & ')' ) Thus, you need to pass the type O to the arguments A,S,M and D of the templates, as it is no longer possible to determine these implicitly.
