#endifPaste the above code in stdc++.h file and save it.
To save in nano editor press CTRL + O and then press Enter and then press CTRL + X.
Now install Visual Studio Code using brew.
brew install --cask visual-studio-codeNow when you will open a cpp file and use bits/stdc++.h you will see a error like below.
Error showing that bits/stdc++.h file is missingRun the below command to get the gcc version installed in your system via brew. Also install if it is not already installed.
ls /opt/homebrew/bin/g++* /usr/local/bin/g++*
output: zsh: no matches found: /opt/homebrew/bin/g++*
brew install gcc
ls /opt/homebrew/bin/g++* /usr/local/bin/g++*
output: /opt/homebrew/bin/g++-14 /usr/local/bin/g++Now open the c_cpp_properties.json file in vs code in your workspace directory. See the image below for reference.
Open c_cpp_properties.json file in vs code.Now in the compilerPath change the path to be "/opt/homebrew/bin/g++-14"
Changed the Path to /opt/homebrew/bin/g++-14Go back to your code and then you won't find the error underlined in #include<bits/stdc++.h>
You won't find error in bits/stdc++.h now.You can use the below command to compile any cpp file.
g++-14 B_Order_Book.cpp -o outputNow install the CPH extension in VS code.
Download CPH extension and Click on Run AllAfter clicking on Run All you will see the error in the output.
To Fix this Go to Settings and Search CPH and change the Cpp command accordingly like g++-14
Change cpp command to g++-14Now click on Run All and you won't find any error.
