Some Random Question Help

First before i can ask this question, how can i make the white boxes to place my code in them. Its alot to read without that. //This is Practice Program I am making //binary(my_random_number); this is used to show the random binary #include <iostream> // Include the standard #include <windows.h> // We need to include this for "console" functions. #include <string> // Allows us to use the "string" type #include <ctime> #include <cstdlib> #include <algorithm> #include <vector> using namespace std; // Use the standard namespace (blah blah, not important to understand right now) string userName; //The variable for there name int Age; //The variable for there age int Play; //the variable to determine if they want to play or not int Answer; //variable for answers with numbers string stranswer; int score = 0; //variable that keeps track of there score int total = 0; //variable that keeps track of there number of questions string Engelbart = "Engelbart"; string engelbart = "engelbart"; int Trivia(); void binary(int); int question; int Kilobyte(); int age(); int binary(); int entername(); int bios(); int RAM(); int nibble(); int mouse(); int ending(); // Here is our function that draw's a color string in a DOS window. // We just pass in the string, the X and Y position, then the color we desire. // The color can be a background color AND a foreground color. Here are some color examples: // FOREGROUND_GREEN; FOREGROUND_RED; FOREGROUND_BLUE; - BACKGROUND_RED; BACKGROUND_BLUE; BACKGROUND_GREEN; // You can mix and match these to create other colors. Look in "Main()" to see how void DrawColorString(string szText, int X, int Y, WORD color) { HANDLE OutputH; // This will be used for our handle to the output (basically, holds permission to change the output settings) COORD position = {X, Y}; // Create a COORD and set it's x and y to the X and Y passed in. OutputH = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE); // Get a OUTPUT handle to our screen. SetConsoleTextAttribute(OutputH, color); // Set the text attribute to what ever color that was passed in. // The function SetConsoleTextAttribute takes (the handle to the output, and the color); SetConsoleCursorPosition(OutputH, position); // Set the cursor position to the desire position passed in. cout << szText; // Now print out what we wanted to at the position that was passed in. } //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// //OK, trying out this vector thing, since i have never used them before i // //I do this right.

Im just a beginner so if someone can help me please also explain how it works if you can. P.S This is C++, using Microsoft Visual C++.

Just replace your trivia function with this and it should work.

  int Trivia(){ cout << "\n\n\n\t\tWelcome to Computer Trivia!\n\t\tPrepare for your First Question.\n"; typedef vector<int (*)(void)> func_vector; func_vector questions; questions.push_back(&Kilobyte); questions.push_back(&age); questions.push_back(&binary); questions.push_back(&RAM); questions.push_back(&entername); questions.push_back(&bios); questions.push_back(&nibble); questions.push_back(&mouse); random_shuffle(questions.begin(), questions.end());  for(func_vector::iterator c = questions.begin(); c != questions.end(); ++c)  (**c)(); return 0;}

Chess is played by three people. Two people play the game; the third provides moral support for the pawns. The object of the game is to kill your opponent by flinging captured pieces at his head. Since the only piece that can be killed is a pawn, the two armies agree to meet in a pawn-infested area (or even a pawn shop) and kill as many pawns as possible in the crossfire. If the game goes on for an hour, one player may legally attempt to gouge out the other player's eyes with his King.

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\MyProjects\Computer Trivia 2nd Edition\Computer Trivia 2nd Edition\Computer Trivia 2nd Edition.cpp(120) : error C2664: ''push_back'' : cannot convert parameter 1 from ''int (void)'' to ''int (__cdecl *const & )(v

i get that error, its the only one now, what can i do to fix it
