trouble working with a class

mdeeza (11)
Need a little point in the right direction working with classes with separate header / driver / initialization files

currently receiving these error messages

1>c:\users\michael\documents\proj6\money.cpp(51): error C2059: syntax error : '.'
1>c:\users\michael\documents\proj6\money.cpp(53): error C2181: illegal else without matching if

#include <iostream>
#include "money.h"
#include <iomanip>

using namespace std;

	money::money(int d , int c)
{
	dollars = d;
	cents = c;
}



			
	void money::setMoney(int d, int c)
	{
		dollars = d;
		cents = c;
	}

			
	void money::getMoney(int & d, int & c) const
	{
d = dollars;
c = cents;
	}

	void money::print() const	
	// in the form $1.05	
	{
		if (cents < 10)
			cout << "$" << dollars << ".0" << cents << endl;
		else 
			cout << "$" << dollars << "." << cents << endl;
	}

	int money::dollarsToCents() const	
			// converts $1.05 to 105 cents
	{
		int centsconvert;
		centsconvert = (dollars + (cents / 100)) * 100;
		
		cout << "$" << dollars << "and " << cents << "cents is " <<
		cout << centsconvert << "cents" << endl;
	return centsconvert;
	}

	bool money::equalMoney(money otherMoney) const
	{
		if (money.cents == otherMoney.cents && money.dollars == otherMoney.dollars)
			true;
		else

	}

#include <iostream>
#include "money.h"
#include <iomanip>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
	money M1, M3;
	money M2(7,75);


	int d, c, dollars, cents;

	M1.setMoney(5,5);

	cout << "enter the dollar value for M3" << endl;
	cin >> dollars;
	cout << "enter the cent value for M3" << endl;
	cin >> cents;

	M3.setMoney(dollars,cents);

	
	
	cout << "money 1 is ";
	M1.print();
	cout << endl;

	cout << "money 2 is ";
	M2.print();
	cout << endl;
	
	cout << "money 3 is ";
	M3.print();
	cout << endl;



		if (M2.equalMoney(M3))
		cout << "Money2 and Money3 are the same value" << endl;
	else
		cout << "Money2 and Money3 are different values" << endl;


	system("pause");
	return 0;
}


and this is my header file with class included

			void print() const;			// in the form $1.05

bool money::equalMoney(money otherMoney) const
{
    if (money.cents == otherMoney.cents && money.dollars == otherMoney.dollars)
        true;
    else
        false;
}


money.cents and money.dollars should be just cents and dollars, respectively.

Also, you forgot to put return before your true and false.
