    Unhappy What's wrong?

    what's wrong?
    It keeps coming up with to few arguments to function ( its in a header)


    Code:
    inline float tang(string A_O_Aj, float angle, float opposite, float adjacent)
    {
        float x = 0;
    
        if(A_O_Aj == "A")
        {
            x = opposite / adjacent;
            x = atan(x);
            x = x * (180 / 3.141592);
            return x;
        }
    
        if(A_O_Aj == "O")
        {
            x = angle * (3.141592 / 180);
            return x;
        }
    
        if(A_O_Aj == "Aj")
        {
            x = opposite / (tan(angle * (3.141592 / 180)));
            return x;
        }
    }

    The only thing wrong at compile time is the lack of a return statement:
    Code:
    #include <string>
    #include <cmath>
    
    using namespace std;
    
    inline float tang(string A_O_Aj, float angle, float opposite, float adjacent)
    {
        float x = 0;
    
        if(A_O_Aj == "A")
        {
            x = opposite / adjacent;
            x = atan(x);
            x = x * (180 / 3.141592);
            return x;
        }
    
        if(A_O_Aj == "O")
        {
            x = angle * (3.141592 / 180);
            return x;
        }
    
        if(A_O_Aj == "Aj")
        {
            x = opposite / (tan(angle * (3.141592 / 180)));
            return x;
        }
    }
    
    int main()
    {
        tang("A", 1, 2, 3);
    }
    The compiler output:
    Code:
    test.cpp: In function 'float tang(std::string, float, float, float)':
    test.cpp:29: warning: control reaches end of non-void function
    If you disagree, post the smallest and simplest program that demonstrates the error, and post the exact error message.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    Which line number?
    And which line of your code is that?
    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.
