Errors with Xcode- help!

tem14b (6)
I have created this program which is supposed to give payroll for different positions. One problem I am having is the program should give a "TotalPay" when the user presses Q. I can't figure out how to write that in code.
My other problem is: I am using Xcode, and it has given me 2 errors "Unknown type name (little picture of a box)" and 2 errors "Expected ';' after top level declarator". Please help me find these 4 errors. I don't know what they mean. Thank you!

Ignore him.
If you are going to test to see if paycode is 'Q', you should make paycode a char and then change your case code to check for different letters for example:
