missing function header (old-style formal list?) build error

[majorursa]

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main();
{
	int score;
	
	Cout << "enter score below to see your result:\n";
	cin >> score;

	if (score < 0) {
		cout << "not a legal score!\n\n";
	}else if (score >= 0 && score < 100) {
		cout << "not much to brag about.\n\n";
	}else if (score >= 100 && score < 500) {
		cout << "good job!\n\n";
	}else if (score >= 500 && score < 1000) {
		cout << "Really good score!\n\n";
	}else (score >= 1000) {
		cout << "Awesome score!\n\n";
	}

    system("pause");
    return 0;

}

Can someone tell me whats going wrong here?

[soranz]

Sometimes it's the little things...
int main(); //what's wrong here ?

[majorursa]

yea i just saw that but i still get build errors

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;


int main()
{
	int score;
	
	cout << "enter score below to see your result:\n";
	cin >> score;

	if (score < 0) {
		cout << "not a legal score!\n\n";
	}else if (score >= 0 && score < 100) {
		cout << "not much to brag about.\n\n";
	}else if (score >= 100 && score < 500) {
		cout << "good job!\n\n";
	}else if (score >= 500 && score < 1000) {
		cout << "Really good score!\n\n";
	}else (score >= 1000) {
		cout << "Awesome score!\n\n";
	}

    system("pause");
    return 0;

}

it says now missing ';' before '{' ?

[NedimC]

I'm not sure why, but if i add an 'if' at the last 'else' then it works. so try writing:

else if (score >= 1000) {
cout << "Awesome score!\n\n";
}

it should work.

[majorursa]

thanks it works now

[Zephilinox]

else (score >= 1000) {
		cout << "Awesome score!\n\n";
	}

this is like writing

else (score >= 1000)

    cout << "Awesome score!\n\n";

the compiler complains you didn't put a semi colon at the end of the ')' parenthesis, the problem is you can't say else (condition), you either say else or you say else if (condition)
