I am trying to build my code using the Intel C++ Compiler, but for some reason it fails with this error:
catastrophic error: cannot open source file "stdio.h"
In this line #include <stdio.h>.
Any ideas?

6It's also a system header file so it *would* be `#include
` or `#include – trojanfoe May 18 '16 at 13:05`. -

С++ does not have `stdio.h`, use `cstdio` instead. Also, use `<>` instead of `""` for system headers. – HolyBlackCat May 18 '16 at 13:08

1C++ does have `stdio.h` (there are good reasons to prefer `cstdio`, though. – Toby Speight May 18 '16 at 13:10

Sorry, I put
but it has been corrected, so it's not that, put it with "<>" – Javier Uribe May 18 '16 at 15:49

stdio.h is a standard header file; it's a bad idea to have a local file of the same name. If you meant to include the standard header, it should be on your include path, and you should include it with
#include <stdio.h>
You should also consider whether you might get more benefit from including <iostream> or including <cstdio> (like including <stdio.h>, but puts the symbols safely into the std namespace).
