"VectorName" was not declared in this scope..?

Closed, pasting the error here helped me notice the issue. I missed one lowercase letter. And now I understand what the error was suggesting.. Looked like it was suggesting exactly what I had.. Totally didn't see the case difference even though I was checking for it...

Please Note: This is for a homework assignment, however, the due date was at least a week ago. I'm just doing this for the learning aspect.

I've made a lot of progress today for the assignment but am stuck on this issue and I haven't been able to figure it out for quite a while now.

The issue is that I get these errors when compiling:

PATH $ g++ -std=c++14 Main.cpp MainFunctions.cpp Player.cpp
MainFunctions.cpp: In function ‘void printAPlayersData(std::vector<Player>&)’:
MainFunctions.cpp:198:23: error: ‘playersVec’ was not declared in this scope
         checkedName = playersVec[i].getPName();
                       ^~~~~~~~~~
MainFunctions.cpp:198:23: note: suggested alternative: ‘PlayersVec’
         checkedName = playersVec[i].getPName();
                       ^~~~~~~~~~
                       PlayersVec


When is very confusing because I use the same code in another function above it and it works perfectly fine. I've checked the parameters between the two (for differences), the details and cases of letters. I have no clue what's wrong.

Here are the 2 functions I'm referring to:
