void(); issues

[w00t]

I'm having a bit of a problem with the public member function void kill(). I would like to have the program run to the meow() function, then execute the kill() function with the data stored in kill().
I'm thinking that i used bool incorrectly. It tells me that "kill" is never used. Anyways, if anyone understands what i just said and has some idea on how to set void kill() straight, i would be very happy
Thanks in advance for reading this.

// Deomonstrates declaration of a class and
//definition of an object for that class,

class Cat
{
	public:
      	int its_age;
        int its_weight;
        meow();
        kill();
        };
void meow()
	{
   		cout <<"Meow.\n";
        }

void kill()
{
      int x;
      bool kill(0,1);
      
      cout <<"Would you like to kill Frisky?\n ";
      cin >>x;

         if(kill = 1);
         {
      	cout <<"Thump! \n";
         }
         if(kill = 0)
         {
         cout <<"Okay. *Swerves* \n";
         }
}

void main()
{
   Cat Frisky;
   Frisky.its_age = 5;			//assigns 5 to int_itsage for cat frisky
   Frisky.its_weight = 15;
   
   cout <<"Frisky is a cat who is "		<<Frisky.its_age	
   << " Years old.\n";
   cout <<"Frisky weighs " 	<<Frisky.its_weight	<<" Pounds.\n ";
   meow();
   kill();
   }

Do you have to use bool ?
if not there is a quick fix.

void kill()
{
int x;
bool kill(0,1);

cout <<"Would you like to kill Frisky?\n ";
cin >>x;

if(kill = 1);
{
cout <<"Thump! \n";
}
if(kill = 0)
{
cout <<"Okay. *Swerves* \n";
}
}

void kill()
{
int x;

cout <<"Would you like to kill Frisky? 1 for Yes , 0 for No\n ";
cin >>x;

if(x == 1);
{
cout <<"Thump! \n";
}
if(x == 0)
{
cout <<"Okay. *Swerves* \n";
}
}
If you have to use bool let me know and I will see what I can do.

Er... I believe this was posted in July... ;]

Aahh... Thanks, DesertWolf. I don't have to use bool, so that will be a good fix to the problem.

edit: Fixed it and it works fine :rock:

Your problem was you had bool in your method, but you were taking an int in as your answer to your "Do you want to kill" question, and there was no interaction between the bool and the int. Also you had "=" which is an assignment operator, when you should have had "==" to check equality.
That wasn't too bad a question, you should see some of the problems my students (I tutor CIS courses at my College) come up with.

Oh yea, Vlad..I think you should owe me a beer for that one..
