    Functions/Sub functions

    Hi, getting two small errors in lines 95 and 97 with semicolon but everything looks fine.
    The issue is that my program works fine without the "calc" and "printResult" functions but these are required as functions to my sub functions so I am trying to implement them. Here is what I have.

    Code:
    /* Creates customer's bills given the length and the width of the carpet in feet,
       the carpet price per square foot and the percent of discount for each customer.
            Written by: 
            Date:       10/9/14
    */

    #define TAX 8.5
    #define LABOR 0.35
    
    
    //Function Declarations

                   float* percent_discount, float* cost);

    I got it, it was parameter error and me putting calc in front of statements in calc function. Thank you.

    You might also want to get over the notion of "sub function". There is no such thing in C.
    Right 98% of the time, and don't care about the other 3%.

    If I seem grumpy or unhelpful in reply to you, or tell you you need to demonstrate more effort before you can expect help, it is likely you deserve it. Suck it up, Buttercup, and read this, this, and this before posting again.

    What you meant to say was "I got my answer here, it was parameter error and me putting calc in front of statements in calc function."

    Haha, yes Jim, I was trying to take all the credit for this incredibly complex beginner C prog in order to impress all. I realize it is not good from to post duplicates.

    Anyway, I got my answer there, then from the compiler output. Thanks.

    Then why are you still doing it? Pick one forum and stick with it.
