when i compiled/run this program i got the following error:

fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'maximum.h': No such file or directory

can someone help figure out the error please.


// maxi.cpp
//write a template function, MAX, to find the maximum number of 3 integers, 3 doubles//
#include <iostream>
#include "maximum.h"// include definition of function template max
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int int1, int2, int3//max integer values

cout <<"Please input three integer values: ";
cin >> int1 >> int2 >> int3;

cout << "The maximum integer value is: "//int max value
<< Maximum( int1, int2, int3 );

double double1, double2, double3;// max with double values

cout << "\n\n Please input three double values: ";//
cin >> double1>> double2 >> double3;

cout << "The maximum double value is: "// find the max double value
<< Maximum( double1, double2, double3 );

char char2, char2, char3;// get the cahr values

cout << "\n Please input three characters: ";
cin >> char1 >> char2 >> char3;

//find the max character value
cout << "The Maximum character value is: "
<< maximum(char1, char2, char3 ) << endl;

return 0;
}//end main

----------------------------------------------------------------

//maxi.h
//function template maximum
#ifndef max_H
#define max_H
#include <iostream>

template < class T >
T maximum( T value1, T value2, T value3 )
{
T maximumValue = value1;//check if value1 is max

if ( value2 > maximumValue )//check is value2 is max
maximumValue = value2;

if ( value3 > maximumValue )//check if value3 is max
maximumValue = value3;

return maximumValue;
}//end template
#endif

 

Well if your header file is called maxi.h (as indicated by your code) then you need to include "maxi.h" "not maximum.h"... If it is in fact called maximum.h then you might need to tell your compiler where to find it.
