Error

[Ilya020]

I keep getting this error but dont know why.

Here is the code:

/* Craps game */
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>

int roll_dice(void);

main()
{

  int gameStatus, sum, point;
	
	srand(time(NULL));
  	sum = roll_dice();

 	switch(sum) {
	
	case 7: case 11:
	gameStatus = 1;
	break;
	
	case 2: case 3: case 12:
	gameStatus = 2;
	break;

	default:
	gameStatus = 0;
	point = sum;
	printf("Point is %d\n", point);
	break; 
}
	
	while(gameStatus==0) {
		sum = roll_dice();
	
	if (sum == point) {
		gameStatus = 1; }
	else
	
	if (sum == 7) {
		gameStatus = 2; }



	if (gameStatus == 1) {
		printf("Player wins\n"); }
	else {
		printf("Player loses\n"); }



	return 0;

}

int roll_dice(void)
{
  int die1, die2, dieSum;

  die1 = 1 + (rand() % 6 );
  die2 = 1 + (rand() % 6 );
  dieSum = die1 + die2;

	printf("You rolled %d + %d = %d/n", die1, die2, sum);
	
	return sum;

}

Here is the error from gcc:

[SHELL]
ilya@sig11:~$ gcc craps.c
craps.c: In function `main':
craps.c:69: syntax error at end of input
[/SHELL]

Anyone know the problem? BTW, line 69 is the last line after the final }

cheers,

Ilya

maybe because it should be
int main()
instead of
main()

[DesertWolf]

I am a little rusty on my C++ but first, redhead is right it should be int main, then I don't see a return statement for the main method,

main()
{

int gameStatus, sum, point;

srand(time(NULL));
sum = roll_dice();

switch(sum) {

case 7: case 11:
gameStatus = 1;
break;

case 2: case 3: case 12:
gameStatus = 2;
break;

default:
gameStatus = 0;
point = sum;
printf("Point is %d\n", point);
break;
}

This is the end of your main method with no return 0;
You do have a return in the next section with the while statement, but it is not in you main(), I would say that you are missing a set of braces {} for your main() method,
BUt hey I might be wrong I havent delt with C++ in a while.

[joe_bruin]

you're missing a closing parenthesis somewhere. probably in your while() loop

[Ilya020]

LOL, I was missing a closing { just like joe_bruin said.

Thanks guys,

Ilya.

Totally fixed it now except there is a logic error and I will look into it later as I am going to bed now. Its only 11:08 but whatever...


Night,


Ilya.

[redhead]

int roll_dice(void)
{
  int die1, die2, dieSum;

  die1 = 1 + (rand() % 6 );
  die2 = 1 + (rand() % 6 );
  dieSum = die1 + die2;

	printf("You rolled %d + %d = %d/n", die1, die2, sum);
	
	return sum;

}

should be

int roll_dice(void)
{
  int die1, die2, dieSum;

  die1 = 1 + (rand() % 6 );
  die2 = 1 + (rand() % 6 );
  dieSum = die1 + die2;

	printf("You rolled %d + %d = %d/n", die1, die2, dieSum);
	
	return dieSum;

}

But since that would give another error than logical error, you might have changed that already.

you are....CORRECT

I saw that but I was tired and decided screw it. Stupid me...
