    You can't use functions with a void return type with cout. You need to actually return something for it to output.
    It looks like std::string would be the intended return type.

    Do I have to use typecasting to get a number displayed onto a string?

    Or is there a better method?

    stringstream?
    All problems in computer science can be solved by another level of indirection,
    except for the problem of too many layers of indirection.
