If the code is this

cout <<" Programs ends "<< "\n";
// this is were the error happens ? cout <<"*********************************"<< "\n";

try this

cout <<" Programs ends "<< "\n";
// this is were the error happens ? cout
cout <"*********************************"<< "\n";

I ran your code through my compiler and fixed all of the errors
that cropped up. Most of them were simple typos [putting <
instead of << for the extraction stream operator or not enclosing
a string inside double quotes]. You should use the headers that
I specified, however. The old header files that you used before
are deprecated in the standard and may be in older text books,
but they are not guaranteed to exist in the real world [though
they will probably exist for years].

// This is a PA from what i have learnt chap01 to chap 04
//this program will do addition , times, sharing , subtractions.
#include <cstdio>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;


int main()

{

int num1,num2,total;
float num1f,num2f,totalf;


cout <<"*************************************"<<"\n";
cout <<"** Dynex Basic Maths Program **"<<"\n";
cout <<"*************************************"<<"\n";
cout <<" ************* "<<"\n";
cout <<" **** "<<"\n";
cout <<" ** "<<"\n";


cout <<"\n";
cout <<"Enter the first digit:"<<"\n";
cin >> num1;
cout <<"\n";
cout <<"Now enter the second digit:"<<"\n";
cin >> num2;
cout <<"\n";

total = num1 + num2;
cout <<" Your total sum is:";
cout << total;

cout <<"\n";
cout <<"*********************************"<< "\n";
cout <<" Programs ends "<< "\n";
// this is were the error happens ? 
cout <<"*********************************"<< "\n";

return 0;






}

I also tried to remove all errors (very simple)

the code is:


// This is a PA from what i have learnt chap01 to chap 04
//this program will do addition , times, sharing , subtractions.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <iostream.h>


int main()

{

int num1,num2,total;
float num1f,num2f,totalf;


cout <<"*************************************"<<"\n";
cout <<"** Dynex Basic Maths Program **"<<"\n";
cout <<"*************************************"<<"\n";
cout <<" ************* "<<"\n";
cout <<" **** "<<"\n";
cout <<" ** "<<"\n";


cout <<"\n";
cout <<"Enter the first digit:"<<"\n";
cin >> num1;
cout <<"\n";
cout <<"Now enter the second digit:"<<"\n";
cin >> num2;
cout <<"\n";

total = num1 + num2;
cout <<" Your total sum is:";
cout << total;

cout <<"\n";
cout <<"*********************************"<< "\n";
cout <<" Programs ends "<< "\n";
// this is were the error happens ?
cout <<"*********************************"<< "\n";

return 0;

If the compiler still uses old headers such as <iostream.h> instead of the standard <iostream>, then you better get another (more modern) compiler.

There are several good "free" (still be sure to read and honor the licenses, though!) compilers and IDEs available on the web. One that is quickly becoming my favorite is Dev-C++ (available at www.bloodshed.net) - I've dabbled with the latest beta with the latest Mwing CRT library for some smaller, educational projects, and even though the IDE is still somewhat quirky, the gcc compiler is very good.
