Expected Results:  it should have allowed main to be void, recognized cout as
legitimate

Additional info:

Comment 1 Jakub Jelinek 2002-11-11 20:05:50 UTC
main must return int, ISO C++ 98 requires this.
cout nor endl are present in global namespace, so neither that can be recognized.
They are defined in std namespace, so you need either to:
a) add using namespace std; after the includes
b) add using std::cout; and using std::endl; after the includes
c) use std::cout instead of cout and similarly with endl
