“l-value required” error

Question

When do we get \"l-value required\" error...while compiling C++ program???(i am using VC++ )

Answer 1

I had a similar issue and I found that the problem was I used a single '=' instead of a double '==' in an if statement

lvalue error:

 if (n = 100) { code } // this is incorrect and comes back with the lvalue error

correct:

if (n == 100) { code } // this resolved my issue
