Hi all,
Ive developed this code for a college assignment, however when I try to compile I get the following error:
(255) : warning C4091: '' : ignored on left of 'float' when no variable is declared
c:\documents and settings\matthew\desktop\electric.cpp(277) : error C2059: syntax error : ')'
Error executing cl.exe.
ELECTRIC.OBJ - 1 error(s), 4 warning(s)
Please could you take a quick look at the code, Its something to do with the vatAmt float variable. Thanks in advance.
Heres the code, both errors are at the bottom of the code, ive marked them out.
