help: parse error at end of input

I got the error at the end of the lines, what's wrong?

Code:

---

#include <stdio.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <math.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <iomanip>
#include <string>

class deck
{
    public:

      enum Card_Type {hearts, diamonds, spades, clubs};

      Card_Type theType[4];
      int theRank[13];

      deck()
      {
        initialize();
      }

    private:
      void initialize (){
        for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
        {
          switch (i){
            case 0:  theType[i] = hearts;
                      break;
            case 1:  theType[i] = diamonds;
                      break;
            case 2:  theType[i] = spades;
                      break;
            case 3:  theType[i] = clubs;
                      break;
        }

        for (int i = 0; i < 12; i++)
        {
          theRank[i] = i;
        }
      }
};

void retriev (deck& in)
{

  srand(time(NULL));
  cout<<"Random selection from a deck!\n";
  cout<<"You got "<<in.theRank[rand()%12]<<" of "<<in.theType(rand()%3);
}

int main()
{
  deck one;
  retriev (one);
  system("pause");
  return 0;
}

> void main()
main returns int

> case: 0
Try
case 0:

Also, your loop/case is a complete waste of time, it reduces to
theType[0] = hearts;
theType[1] = diamonds;
theType[2] = spades;
theType[3] = clubs;

error fixed,but the same error is still there

I believe you are missing a closing brace in your initialize() function. Following Salems advice would reduce the number of code blocks there are, so you should probably listen to him. Making things easier to read automatically leads to better syntax.

Count the braces in void initialize

Code:

---

// 1
void initialize () {
}

// 2
void initialize () {
  for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
  }
}

// 3
void initialize () {
  for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
    switch (i){
    }
  }
}

// Not like this
void initialize () {
  for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++) {
    switch (i){

---

If you type your closing brace whenever you type the opening brace, you'll never get into this state of having mis-matches or the problems of figuring out exactly where the missing one would go.

problem solved, thx.

BTW you should only call srand() once during the execution of a program, so if you intend to call retriev() multiple times you should put the srand() call in main().
