Why this simple code doesn't work?

Question

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
double length = 5.6;
double height = 3.1;

double area = lenght * height;
cout<< area;
}

Answer 1

You have defined length and height as variables, but you are using lenght in the area calculation.

Change the line double area = lenght * height; to double area = length * height; and the code should work as expected.

Answer 2

You have length misspelled in your area assignment. Don't forget to check error logs, sometimes they can be useful (and at times confusing haha). ;)
