No match for operator in 'std::cin <<input1' Won't compile.

Help guys, got this due in a couple hours and it is driving me nuts. I can't figure out the problem. I need to shift the values of 4 integers. I don't understand what I am doing wrong here.
Below is the exact error I am getting. If you notice anything wrong I am doing please say so. I am very unskilled in this sort of stuff. Thanks for the feedback and assistance guys.
../shift_2.cpp:35:7: error: no match for ‘operator<<’ in ‘std::cin << input1’

EDIT: I'm an idiot. Wrong arrows for cin.
Still having issues with

/shift2/Debug/../shift_2.cpp:26: undefined reference to `show_results(int, int, int, int)'

Instead of

cin<<input1<<input2<<input3<<input4;

shall be

cin>>input1>>input2>>input3>>input4;

At first you declared the function as

void show_results(int output1, int output2, int output3, int output4);


but then you defined it as

void show_results(int output1, int output2, int& output3, int& output4)

when you wrote the function declaration (on line 15) you said:
void show_results(int output1, int output2, int output3, int output4);


but when you wrote the function body (starting on line 48) - you wrote
void show_results(int output1, int output2, int& output3, int& output4)
