Vector as a class member

I am writing the followinf class to store marks in a assignment. Using a vector of floats.
I keep on running into errors like not of class type while compiling this class what to do??
Also i would like to do the follwing in the main program
vector<assignment> a(5);
a[0].marksvec.push_back(10.5);

will this be fine or i will again run into errors

class assignment
{
public:
    vector<float> marksvec();
    float weightage;
    int totalmarks;
    string name;

    float mean()
    {
        float x=0;
        for(int i=0; i<marksvec.size(); i++)
        {
            x=x+marksvec[i];
        }
        return x/marksvec.size();
    }
    float sd()
    {
        float x=0,y=mean();
        for(int i=0; i<marksvec.size(); i++)
        {
            x=x+(marksvec[i]-y)*(marksvec[i]-y);
        }
        return sqrt(x/marksvec.size());
    }

};

Hi there,

Could you please share:

- Your full code
- Any compiler errors you are getting

That would help us to help you.

Thanks,

Firstly,
vector<float> marksvec();
The above statement does not declare a member variable but a function that returns a vector of floats.

Instead change it to
vector<float> marksvec;

Secondly,

vector<assignment> a(5);
 a[0].marksvec.push_back(10.5);

seems perfectly fine to me.

However, as NwN suggested better advice can be given if you provide more information.
