Hey guys I am currently doing a homework assignment for my class and I could use a little help. The assignment is to create a an abstract class called "number" and have 3 classes derived from it: binary, octal, and hexadecimal. Each class takes an integer input by the user and converts it to a different base with respect to the class that is called (e.g. if the user puts 5 the screen will display 5 in binary, octal, and hex). Another class that is included is called "stack" and is required in the assignment.
I am using visual studio 2010 and I have all my code separated into different header files (binary.h, octal.h, hexadecimal.h, and stack.h) and one .cpp file called main. In main I have #include <iostream>, #include "binary.h" and the code compiles and runs exactly how I planned it to. When I add #include "octal.h" and try to compile, I get around 30 errors. Here is a screenshot of the error list (
http://www.mediafire.com/i/?lhuhrk1sbc67bqi).
I have no idea what's going on and the errors don't make too much sense to me. Here is my code that will compile and run.

In order to make it not compile and get that huge error list just add the #include "octal.h" in main.
I realize it's a lot to ask for you all to look through, but I have been researching and trying to fix it for a few hours now and I am clueless as how to make it work. Any help would be really appreciated!
