How to build an Arduino Weather Station Error

[brin838]

I am receiving an "Does not name a type" error on the Above mentioned sketch on the following line
#define dht_dpin A1 //no ; here. Set equal to channel sensor is on
dht DHT;

Any suggestions?

Any suggestions?

Yes....show the code (in code brackets....three dots in reply menu, more options (<>)....) that you are referring to.......
Most here are good, but not so good as to suggest changes or problems with code they cannot see.

You possibly forgot to include the necessary libraries. See the example here.

I may have found the code. The error is not with you but with the originator of the article. The includes are misisng there:


The necessary hint comes shortly before the code:

Here is a good tutorial on interfacing DHT11 with Arduino. if you're still facing a problem, you can cross-check your code and circuit with this one: https://www.theengineeringprojects.com/2017/08/dht11-arduino-interfacing.html
