Thread: Problem comparing variables

Code:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    int num1, num2;
    cout<<"Please enter a number for number one:";
    cin>> num1;
    cout<<"You've entered: "<< num1 <<" for number one.\n";
    cout<<"Please enter a number for number two:";
    cin>> num2;
    cout<<"You've entered: "<< num2 <<" for number two.\n";
    cout<<"Now calculating results....Please wait...\n";
    if (num1 < num2);{
             cout<< num2 <<"is greater than" << num1 <<"\n";
             }
    else (num1 > num2);{
             cout<< num2 <<"is less than" << num1 <<"\n";
             }
    main();
}

When compiling, I get this error,

Code:

 In function `int main()':
17 expected primary-expression before "else"
17 expected `;' before "else"

I've always had problems with If and Else statements. Anyone wanna help meh out?
