"Type expected" means the compiler was expecting a type name, like
'int'. The most common reason for getting this message is that the
offending code appears outside of any function. Looking at the README,
I'm guessing that perhaps you took that snippet and replaced the
"// ..." near the top with "class Foo {" or similar. TO make this
compile, all of the code after the //... should be inside a function
(main(), perhaps.)

Incidentally, I notice that "available" has lost its parentheses here.

Well, I haven't kept track, but Sandia, Lawrence Livermore, and Los
Alamos national labs keep leap-frogging eachother.All three are
building/buying Teraflop-class computers as part of an initiative
called ASCI (Advanced strategic computing initiative). Sandia's first
Teraflop record-holder was a 1.7 TF machine; they either already have
or are in the process of upgrading to a 3.5 TF machine. Sandia's
machine uses Intel technology (Pentium Pro-class chips and custom
boards; they might eb upgrading the chips to PII or PIII). Lawrence's
TF machines use IBM technology.
