Why doesn't this work? I get: error C2447: missing function header (old-style formal list?) and error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before 'while' I'm really confused, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks! Edited by - gone_postal on March 4, 2002 12:24:50 AM

You cannot write code (i.e. your while loops) outside of a function.

Heres my new code:

  #include "stdafx.h"#include <iostream>#include <algorithm>int Deck [52];//just placing the cards to the deck...int deal();int oDeal();int draw();int oDraw();using namespace std;int main(int argc, char* argv[]){	int i;	i=0;	while (i < 14)	{		Deck[i]=i+1;		i++;	};	while (i < 27)	{		Deck[i]=(i-13);		i++;	};		while (i < 40)	{		Deck[i]=(i-26);		i++;	};			while (i < 53)	{		Deck[i]=(i-39);		i++;	};	int i1, i2, tS;	int t = 0;	while (t < 52)	{		++t;		Deck[t] = t;	};bug right here	for (i=0; i<52; ++i)----------->>>		std::swap (Deck , Deck [rand () % 52]);		int sumOfCards;	int sumOfOCards;	int choice;	sumOfCards=deal();  //   dealing cards for both players	sumOfOCards=oDeal();//	cout << "What do you want to do now:\n(1)Draw another card\n(2)Stay where you''re at\n";	cin >> choice;//player chooses whether to draw or stay	switch (choice)	{	case 1:		sumOfCards=sumOfCards+draw();		break;	case 2:		break;	}	cout << "\nThe computer is deciding what to do now.\n";//"ai" decides what to do	if (sumOfOCards<=15)	{		sumOfOCards=sumOfOCards+oDraw();	}	if (sumOfCards>21)//lose and win conditions	{		cout << "Sorry, but you went over 21.

You win!\n";	}	if (sumOfCards<sumOfOCards)	{		cout << "The computer got more points than you.

now it gives me "error C2782: ''void __cdecl std::swap(_Ty &,_Ty &)'' : template parameter ''_Ty'' is ambiguous" right where i marked... dang, i cant seem 2 fix this right! :D

Deck and Deck[index] are not the same type, you cannot swap them.

And why don't use the std::random_shuffle algorithm ?

#include <algorithm>
std::random_shuffle( Deck, Deck+52 );

And your deck is shuffled...

Edit: by the way, why not do

  int i;for( i=0; i<13; ++i ){  Deck[i] = i+1;  Deck[i+13] = i+1;  Deck[i+26] = i+1;  Deck[i+39] = i+1;}Edited by - Fruny on March 5, 2002 3:01:51 AM  

Well, I did the random_shuffle idea, and for once it stopped giving me "you have been dealt cards 1 and 1". Now, though, it only gives me cards 5 and 7! I don''t understand why it would do that... any help?
Jeez, I feel like I''m leeching ideas off this site because I''m not good enough to do this myself... I''m really sorry if it seems that way, I just haven''t learned this yet.

Have you initialized the random number generator ?

Add a srand( time( NULL ) ); at the beginning of your program (and #include <ctime> as well as <cstdlib>
