    Error End of OutPut

    I just want to clear somthing up about what this error means,

    pharse error:: ERROR END OF OUTPUT::

    Am i correct in saying that all this means is a brace is missing from the end of a function like this for example:

    Code:
    void example
    {
    cout << "Hello << endl;
                       // brace would go here
    Or does it mean somthing diffrent?

    The thing is I have written a textgame that contains over 3000 lines of code, and I compiled it last night and I can't figure out what the error means, if I am correct then I can look through my functions and take a look...

    thanks in advance

    Post ALL your code.

    It is not that old programmers are any smarter or code better, it is just that they have made the same stupid mistake so many times that it is second nature to fix it.

    Sounds like the perfect opportunity to learn a new skill, debugging. I'd start by commenting out larger and larger segments of the code until I could get it to compile. The last segment I commented out would then have a high probability of containing the culprit, and I could repeat the process until I could get it down to a line or two to look at in detail. That technique works the vast majority of the time when I get in this mess---usually when I'm cleaning out debugging code and zap one too many curly braces, etc.
    You're only born perfect.
