Not sure what is it asking me for. What value??

Throwing 2 errors:

error C4716: 'operator<<' : must return a value
error C4716: 'operator>>' : must return a value

Thanks guys
You say they return streams in your prototypes, but you don't actually return anything in the implementation.
So what am i Suppose to declare. I know its in line 440 and 454. I still don't know what to return?
so i put return output; }

and return input; }

should it work?
nevermind, it worked ok> thanks it compiles just fine. now
