can't compile the code in visual studio

[Yamei Zhou]

Hello, I opened the file in the folder of level 1 but I'm not able to compile it. Are there any other apps or package I should install in order to compile the cpp file?
Thank you!

Do you have VS installed?

 

[Yamei Zhou]

Yes, I have VS installed but if I open the file from the folder Level 1 I can't compile it. I also tried to use VS code. Here is a screenshot of VS code, can you tell me what should I do to fix it?

Did you follow the steps to create an empty project (Seems like you have but double check) ? And then save and move the file into that empty project before compiling.
