expected primary-expression before ‘]’

bzarr (6)
I keep trying to run my code through g++ and for some reason I always get the expected primary-expression before']' and I'm not sure how to make it work. Also the error happens on line twenty after all of the end brackets except for the one with a variable already inputted.

  // you don't use the variable o
  ifstream inFile("data121.txt");   // you can open the file like this
  if (inFile){    // need to check inFile here
