[if (weight<2) && (distance>10 && distance<3000) ] **problem occured here
{
price = distance*(1.10/500)
}
else if (weight>=2 || weight < 6) && (distance >10 && distance < 3000)
{
price = distance*(2.20/500)
}
else if (weight>=6 || weight < 10) && (distance>10 && distance < 3000)
{
price = distance*(3.70/500);
}
else if weight >=10 || weight< 20) && (distance>10 && distance < 3000)

You need forgot the main braces for the if

[PCrumley48]

The "if ( )" statement is ended at the first close parenthesis; the rest of the line is a syntax error as written.

Suggestion: if ( ( condition1 && condition2 ) || (condition3 && condition4) )

There are several other logical expression errors as well. Remember - "=" is assignment, "==" is comparison.

Another suggestion: Use the Format: <> button to insert your code into a code tag; makes it easier to point you to a location in your code by line number.
