Novice coder here so hopefully somebody has the patience to answer my (probably incomplete) question, apologies in advance if not enough info.
I am trying to create a scenario whereby a user can create a child token from the main contract (and then later on a (grand[?])child coin from that token).
I have looked up various documentation and Q&As and have cobbled together the code below. My problem is Remix will not compile the parent contract, saying that child.sol cannot be found, even though it is 2 steps away from the parent. I'm fairly sure the problem is within the Child.sol contract as I've just C+P'd the info, any help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
