Stuck..need help please with while loop

esokoletsky (32)
I'm having a problem with the while loop. I'm trying to create a combination that will exit the program when entered. These are the specific instruction:
Then the main program will skip a few lines and go back to step 1 (which is entering integers again).
At step 1, if the user types in a special combination, the program will go to step 5.
You must determine what this combination is, and you must explain it--in a prompt or in a comment, and in the introduction at the beginning--to the person using the program.

The compiler is also showing me an error on line 51 saying function definition is not allowed before '(' token?

Hey, make sure to initialize those variables x, y, z, printsum and even in line 17. If you do not assign them a value they might cause issues within the while loop. You also forgot a closing bracket (}) in line 47, after you terminate the while-loop. Make sure you actually define the functions outside the main function!
