    	float initial_amount = 20000, current_amount;
    	char width, trans;
    	printf("#######################################################################################################################");
    	printf("\n#                                                                                                                     #");

    Code:
    if (pin == 012345);
    Look for semi colons like the above that should not be there!

    My experience is to not add any semi colon that I do not know is needed.

    The compiler does great on telling about missing semi colons; but, a very poor job telling you about the ones that should not be there.

    So you pretty much ignored everything in your last thread.
    My pincode is having an error, it was supposed to have a 3 attempts.

    Still using goto's
    Still using octal constants
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Cool Debug

    Code:
    line 98||99 else with no open bracket {
    line 99 line not ended with semicolon ;
    Code:
    }
                else 
                printf("PLEASE ENTER A CORRECT PIN NUMBER")
    "without goto we would be wtf'd"
