Won't compile, can't figure out why

[tl1000s]

I have this code I'm trying to convert a string to a float, I tried to compile it and got error message:

syntax error at end of input

I can't figure out what is causing this.

Also do you think this function will work properly for what I want (string to float conversion). If not why?

here is the function code and test driver:

{      char test_string[81];
       float status;
       printf("\nEnter the string to convert: ");
       scanf("%s",test_string);
       printf("\nEchoing input string: %s",test_string);
       status=string2Float(test_string);
       printf("\nconverted float = %f",status);
       printf("\nlenght of string=%d", strlen(test_string));
       printf("\n");
       system("pause");
}
float string2Float(char *s)
{   int neg=0, decplace=1, length=strlen(s), i=(length-1), p=0;
    float result=0;
    
    if(s[0]=='-')
       {
        p=p+1;
        neg=1;
       }
    while(s[i]!='.')
       {
        decplace=decplace*10;
        i=i-1;
       }
    for(p; p<length; p++)
       {
        if(s[p]=='.')
           {
            p=p+1;
           {
        result=result*10+(s[p]-48);
       }
    if(neg)
       {
        result=result*-1;
       }
    result=result*decplace;
    return(result);
}

Thank you~Matt

You aren't matching all your braces

[screw]

for(p; p<length; p++)
       {
        if(s[p]=='.')
           {
            p=p+1;
           { // You should reverse the brace like this: }
        result=result*10+(s[p]-48);
       }

Ah HA! I had a feeling it was a problem with the braces, just couldn't find it.

Thanks!!
