not compiling, not sure how to fix errors

Code:

---

#define KIDS 3#define FAMILY "The Paytons"
#define MORTAGE_RATE 5.15

---

It's a saved .h file.

Then there is this code:

Code:

---

#include <stdio.h>#include <string.h>
#include "first.h"


main()


{






int age;
char childname[14] = "Thomas";


printf("\n%s have %d kids.\n", FAMILY, KIDS);


age= 11;
printf("The oldest, %s, is %d.\n", childname, age);
age = 6;
printf("The middle boy, %s, is %d.\n", childname, age);


age = 3;


strcpy(childname, "Ben");
printf("The youngest, %s, is %d.\n, childname, age);


return 0;


























}

---

Code:

---

line 24:  error:  missing terminating " character

line 26: error:  expected expression before 'return'

line 40:  error:  expected ';'  before '}' token

---

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

You forgot the closing double quote for the string constant on this line:

Code:

---

printf("The youngest, %s, is %d.\n, childname, age);

Like that?

Please forgive me, I get like this when I am doing something challenging(for me). I put the " at the place you said, and, yes, it compiled. Thank you!
