The Errors are:

Error 1 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _main referenced in function ___tmainCRTStartup c:\Users\Joel\documents\visual studio 2010\Projects\takefive\takefive\MSVCRTD.lib(crtexe.obj)

Error 2 error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals c:\users\joel\documents\visual studio 2010\Projects\takefive\Debug\takefive.exe 1

To fix the first problem, add a right curly bracket at line 65, to close off main().

And maybe replace lines 23 and 24, with srand((unsigned)time(0));.
