One other thing I've noticed about your code, there are some of the comments, where the "comment end" instruction is illformed ie:
Code:
/*================================================* /
/* Defines the maximum branches throughout the */
/* country */
/*================================================* /
As opposed to:
Code:
/*================================================*/
/* Defines the maximum branches throughout the */
/* country */
/*================================================*/
Not fixing this, will introduce abnormaly errors, where it's hard to tell why they appear.
