cout<<" Do you want to roll again ? ";
cin>>rollAgain;
}

return 0;


im getting that error in line 25, i dont know why. which is dice[k] = rand%6+1;

rand is a function. If you want to call a function, you must use parenthesis.

Change it to this:

dice[k] = rand() % 6 + 1;  // <- () parenthesis are not just for show
