setprecision

[jthep]

Hi, I'm converting codes that I worked with in C to C++ and having a problem with setprecision. At first the code worked, then I made some changes. When the changes didn't work I wrote it back to how it was before and now it's not working. I keep getting the error message where setprecision is undefined. Can anyone help plz.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

float convertFtoC(int temperature);
int roundUpNextMultiple(int temperature);
int getInput();


float convertFtoC(int temperature)
{
    float celcius (0.0);
    celcius = (temperature - 32.0) * 5.0/9.0;
    return celcius;
}

int foundUpNextMultiple(int temperature)
{
    int addToNextMultiple = temperature % 5;

    if(addToNextMultiple != 0)
    {
        addToNextMultiple = 5 - addToNextMultiple;
        temperature = temperature + addToNextMultiple;
    }
    return temperature;
}

int getInput()
{
    int input;

    cout << "Please enter a temperature greater than 0:\t";
    cin >> input;

    while(input <= 0)
    {
        cout << "Error, please re-enter:  ";
        cin >> input;
    }

    return input;

}

int main()
{
    int input = getInput();
    int maxTemp = foundUpNextMultiple(input);
    int start = 0;
    float celcius(0.0); 

    cout << "Temperature in F" << "\t" << "Temperature in C\n";
    cout.setf(ios::fixed | ios::showpoint);
    cout.setprecision(2);

    while (start <= maxTemp)
    {
        celcius = convertFtoC(start);
        cout << "\t" << start << "\t\t\t" << celcius << "\n";
        start += 5;
    }   
}

Error message occurs at line 54.

Okay, there we go, solved it. I used setprecision vs just cout.precision. Don't know why I used that. I noticed I spelt one of my function calls incorrectly. Wonder why there wasn't an error when compiling.
