Thread: help, what is wron in this code?

First off, it's bad design. Second off, you should be making an actual instance of the function, or ... I believe you can make it a static function and have it work. I'd have to look it up to be sure. (I never use C++.)

There's a way to do it, but you can't just make up a class definition and use functions from it with no instance of the class (unless they're static, or whatever the keyword is I'm looking for).

That being said:

Code:

class Surg
{
    public:
        double cost( ) { return SOMETHING_HERE; }
};

Surg instance;

foo[bar].addCost( instance.cost( ) );

Quzah.

You need to make an instance of your class.

Code:

Surgery s;
patientList[index].addCharges(s.cost());
