Thread: redefinition

this is the error that i get by running the following code.
how do i fix it?

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>

#define SIZE 10

main(){

	int values[]={5,3,7,12,9,1,10,8,4,3};
	int i;
	int square;
	for (i=0; i<SIZE; i++){
		printf ("%i  ",values[i]);}
		printf("\n");

	square=squareElements(values);

	for (i=0; i<SIZE; i++){
		printf("%i",values[i]);}

	system("Pause");
}
void squareElements(int values[],int size){
	int i;
	for (i=0; i<SIZE; i++){
		values[i]=values[i]*values[i];
	}
}

i did some fixing and i still get the same error
error C2371: 'cube' : redefinition; different basic types
error C2063: 'cube' : not a function

Code:

#include<stdlib.h>
#include<stdio.h>

cube(int*);


main(){
	
	double variable=3.43;
	int* pVariable;
	int cube;
	
	printf("Value of variable is &#37;.2lf\n",variable);
	printf("Address of variable is %p\n",&variable);
	
	pVariable=&variable;
	cube(&variable);

	printf ("New value for variable is %lf\n",variable);
	

	
	system("Pause");
}

void cube(int* pVariable){
	printf("The number %.2lf\n",*pVariable);
	*pVariable=*pVariable * *pVariable * *pVariable;
	printf("The value for pVariable is %p\n",pVariable);
}

your function prototype should be : void cube(int*);

Another problem is that you define a variable : int cube;
Thats the same name as your function.

thank you
now i still do not know how to fix the error
error C2063: 'cube' : not a function
i thought the compiler is supposed to know to look at the bottom to find what the cube function is
am i writing it wrong?

Code:

#include<stdlib.h>
#include<stdio.h>

void cube(int*);


main(){
	
	double variable=3.43;
	int* pVariable;
	int cube;
	
	printf("Value of variable is &#37;.2lf\n",variable);
	printf("Address of variable is %p\n",&variable);
	
	pVariable=&variable;
	cube(&variable);

	printf ("New value for variable is %lf\n",variable);
	

	
	system("Pause");
}

void cube(int* pVariable){
	printf("The number %.2lf\n",*pVariable);
	*pVariable=*pVariable * *pVariable * *pVariable;
	printf("The value for pVariable is %p\n",pVariable);
}

1. change to : int main() {

2. variable is a double. pVariable is int*. You have : pVariable=&variable;

3. function cube take an int* as a parameter. You are passing &variable. variable is a double.

4. rename your int cube variable to something else and see what happens.
