What am I doing wrong?

Ok some info I have too compile a program that solves this:
1 coin on square on, 2 on 2, 4 on 3 and so on how many are there on square n

Now I managed too get it too compile using int, long int double int and so on, but ALL of them overload if I choose a value greater than 31 for n.

Now I see no problems with my source code, tho it gives eleven errors when using the ttmath::UInt, so I switched back.

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <process.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <math.h>
#include <ttmath/ttmath.h>

using namespace std;

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
long long int num=2,num1, res;
m:
cout<<"/////////////////////////////////"< <endl;
cout<<"//Enter a number for variable n//"<<endl;
cout<<"/////////////////////////////////"< <endl;
cin>>num1;
if(num1==0.0)
{cout<<"Sorry, please enter a value which is not zero"<<endl;
goto m;}
else {res=pow(num,num1-1.0);
}
cout<<" "<<res<<" is your answer, punk!"<<endl;
{system ("pause");
return 0;}
}

Can anyone tell me what the solution for my problem is? How do I use it properly?

Some info:
I am using Visual c++ 2008 express.
I am an intermediate programmer.
And I have no clue what I am doing wrong.
The equation is 2^n-1=X.

Thanks in advance

You should have shown us the wrong program. This one is properly compiled on MSVC 2008.

#include <iostream>
#include "ttmath/ttmath.h"

using namespace std;

int main()
{
ttmath::Int<10> num=2, num1=-1, res;

do
{
if( num1 == 0 )
cout << "Sorry, please enter a value which is not zero" << endl;

cout << "/////////////////////////////////" <<endl;
cout << "//Enter a number for variable n//" <<endl;
cout << "/////////////////////////////////" <<endl;

cin >> num1;
}
while( num1 == 0 );

// original one was: res = pow(num,num1-1.0);
// with ttmath it can be:
res = num;
int carry = res.Pow(num1 - 1);

if( carry )
cout << "too large value" << endl;
else
cout << res << " is your answer, punk!" << endl;
}

Oh I see, now I know what I did wrong, and I posted the working code.
thanks ^^

Sorry for taking so long to respond, I had some issues with my computer, I am now on a linux system (Ubuntu)

so I can't give the errors, would this code compile under linux?

TTmath works on x86 and amd64 platforms and probably on other little endian platforms too. The operating system doesn't matter. And currently only two compilers are supported: GCC and Microsoft Visual C++.
