Thread: need help with my code

here is your fixed code

Code:

#include <windows.h>
#include <iostream>//no more iostream.h
#include <conio.h>
#include <cstdio>//no more stdio.h
#include <cstdlib>//no more stdlib.h
#include <string>//for strlen()
using namespace std;

void TextPrint(char sentence[80], int sleep); /*Trailing semicolon*/
int main()
{
                char sentence[80];
	sentence = TextPrint("this is a test", 80);/*semicolon*/
	for(int a=0; a<strlen(Sentence), att){
                      cout << sentence[a];
                      getch();
                }
   system("PAUSE")/*waits for user to press enter. Inside of windows.h */
   return 0; /*always do this to end a program */
}

void TextPrint(char sentence[80], int sleep)
{
          sleep(sleep); /*What is int sleep for?*/
          return sentence;
}

I think I fixed all the problems.... but I'm not sure...

lol

By the way, gcn_zelda's code is good in that it helps point out a lot of errors and it gives one way of changing the "code" around into a real program, but in case you haven't noticed, it does not compile either and has several errors of its own. For example, the TextPrint is supposed to return void (nothing), but instead it tries to return sentence. Also, the for loop increments a with att instead of a++.

If you really want help in learning how to write your code, maybe you could explain what you are trying to do (in English), in addition to giving your code. Then somebody can explain the concepts of how to implement what you want based on what you are having trouble with.
