Hy!

I try to compile this source code:

#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>

int a;
int b;
int c;
int choose;

void core(); {

	std::cout << "asd" << std::endl;
}

int main() {

	std::cout << " Ird be hogy 1!" << std::endl;
	std::cin >> choose;
	if (choose == 1) {
		core();
						 }
	else				 {
		return 0;		}

return 0;
}

gives me this error:

main.cpp(9) : error C2447: '{' : missing function header (old-style formal list?)

what the duck is this?

Please help! thanks!

#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>

int a;
int b;
int c;
int choose;

void core(); { /* Rethink this portion cause it's wrong */

	std::cout << "asd" << std::endl;
}

int main() {

	std::cout << " Ird be hogy 1!" << std::endl;
	std::cin >> choose;
	if (choose == 1) {
		core();
						 }
	else				 {
		return 0;		}

return 0;
}

try looking up how to use functions, either declare them above and build them below, or build them above, either way is fine, but you gotta remove the ' ; ' from the function if you wanna build it above.

Also, try looking into using namespace std; ...Saves a lot of time

change

void core(); { /* Rethink this portion cause it's wrong */

to

void core() { /* Rethink this portion cause it's wrong */
