Declaration Syntax Error on line 155?

Written in Turbo C++ so dont tell me its very messy because I know it is and this is an assignment that we must stick in to. The source of the problem is in Case 5 int main { . I just dont know how to fix it.

You can't define a function inside the body of another function; that code is a total mess, the result of copy and paste done by someone who doesn't know what s/he is doing. Fix the structure of your code and then come back.

kind regards,

There is no reason code written in Turbo C++ has to be "very messy". Perhaps it is ok for you to turn in messy code, but it takes more effort for forum members to wade through 228 lines of "messy" code, making it less likely you'll get an answer. You're fortunate that JosAH gave you such a prompt reply.

[networkmancer]

as I said its our assignment so I did not code that.

[JosAH]

@networkmancer
But I bet you put that "int main() {" line (line #156) in the middle of another function body.

kind regards,

Jos
