Still on line 10. Try to use a floating point number instead of integer for pow() second argument. Integer 1 divided by 3 yields zero. (a * b * c) raised to the power of zero yields 1 pow((a * b * c), 1.0 / n);

Line 10: pow((a " b * c"), 1 / n); <n> is an array (defined at line 9). We can't divide `int` by `int` array unless an index was specified to define which element was desired. (Edit) Mistaken the {} for [] got me thinking <n> was an array.

Int n {3} is not definition of an array. However, I'm wondering why I keep getting the answer 1 every time I run the code even with different values

Sorry, my sleepy eyes saw the curly brackets {} like square brackets []. I took a closer look and realised it.
