Stupid Noob in C++ be me, help me out?

[dirt1996]

I am new to C++ having switched over from batch.  I am trying to make a number counter to, but dont seem to be having much luck.  Every time i try to compile it says i have an expression syntax error.  Dont give me a new program, just tell me what is wrong with mine.

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
  int tminus;

  cout<< "Please enter number to count to"; 
  cin>> tminus;
  cin.ignore();
    for ( int x = 0; x <= << tminus <<; x++ ) {
      cout<< x <<endl;
    }
  cin.get();
}

thanks in advance.
Again, please dont harass couse its something obvious.  Im new okay?

the loop:

Code: [Select]

    for ( int x = 0; x >= tminus ; x++ ) {
      cout<< x <<endl;
    }



too many << operators... I would guess you picked those up from batch lol

but how do i fix this?

Code: [Select]

count << x << endl;

Can you put it in the code for me.  So the loop part isnt necessary is what ur saying?  Again I am so sorry for being difficult

[BC_Programmer]

that would just be the one line- I believe the reason it isn't working is the lack of spaces

Even with that one line I typo'd 

Code: [Select]

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
  int tminus;

  cout << "Please enter number to count to:";
  cin >> tminus;
  cin.ignore();
    for ( int x = 0; x <= tminus ; x++ ) {
      cout << x <<endl;
    }
  cin.get();
}

that code compiles and runs with Microsoft Visual C++ 6.
