I'm having some issues with a rather new concept to me.




I have a class that is giving me errors which I'm not quite understanding.
They are

missing ';' before '.'
When I looked this up the error c2143 it said missing token 1 before token 2. I'm not sure how to interpret this.
Any help please and thank you with understand standing these issues?

Thank you that helped I'm now getting other issues involving my array I think. My numbers are off. The sample for this is supposed to output this for the first two lines
Hand for Andy is : JH QH Value of this hand is 20
Hand for Bob is : QC 2H Value of this hand is 12

In stead I'm getting the right cards but for the last part "Value of this hand"
I get 23 for the first and some crap for the second. 1818322258. I'm pretty confused by this because the array that this is coming from is initialized so what gives?
I think that if I can get this part that the other things that are off will fall into line. This is the function below.

void deal(string playersName[],int cardsT[])
{
	int counter = 0;
	cout << "Deal two cards to everyone" << endl;
	for(int i = 0; i < TWOCARD; i++)
	{
		for( int j = 0; j < PLAYERCOUNT; j++)
		{
			cardsT[j] += hand[counter++].getFace();

		}

	}
	
	//Display
	for( int k = 0; k < PLAYERCOUNT; k++)
	{
		cout << "Hand for " << playersName[k] << " is : " ;
		hand[k].display();  
		cout << " and " ;
		hand[k + PLAYERCOUNT].display();
		cout << " Value for this hand is " << cardsT[k] << endl;
	}
	 cout << endl <<endl;
}


Any help would be great.
Oh and this is the constants that were used

const int PLAYERCOUNT = 7;
const int GAMELIMIT = 21;
const int DEALER = 16; 
const int TWOCARD = 2;
