function declaration issues

[philgrek]

this is just a small portion of a program i'm working on, but i'm not really sure what im doing wrong with the declaration and use of these functions.. I "understand" what its telling me, but not sure how to fix the errors at the bottom of the page. any suggestions?? thanks..

float CalcGross(float hrsWkd, float payrate);
float CalcFICA(float ytd, float gross);

     float CalcGross(float hrsWkd, float payRt)
        {
                float gross = (hrsWkd * payRt);
                return gross;
        }

        float CalcFICA(float ytd, float gross)
        {
                if(ytd >= 67000.00)
                        ficaTax = 0.00;
                else if ((ytd + gross) <= 67000.00)
                        ficaTax = (gross * ficaRate);
                     else ficaTax = (67000.00 - ytd) * ficaRate;

                return ficaTax;

        }

lab2.c: In function âmainâ:
lab2.c:70: error: static declaration of âCalcGrossâ follows non-static declaration
lab2.c:16: error: previous declaration of âCalcGrossâ was here
lab2.c:76: error: static declaration of âCalcFICAâ follows non-static declaration
lab2.c:17: error: previous declaration of âCalcFICAâ was here

Do you by any chance have these program statements inside your main() function?

If so, you should know C does not support nesting of function definitions. That is, you can't define a function inside a function. Try moving the two function definitions above main() on your page and eliminating the declarations altogether.

thats exactly what the problem was. i had the functions inside main. thanks for the help!!!

It seems like you're not posting all of your code. I would not expect these
errors from this code frag.

True he shold have posted more of his code...

I took the hint from the error messages ... "In function main..."

Too bad the compiler did not produce a better diagnostic.
