Issue with class implementation

bigyankeefan (30)
I was wondering if I could possibly get a little assistance with a homework assignment I am having a problem with? I am having an issue with class implementation and getting all members of a function to be implemented. Any assistance would be very appreciative.

what is the problem you are facing? You haven't defined the constructor Person();

That's the thing, I keep getting different errors after I fix something I thought needed to be fixed. I redefined Person and now am getting an error with PEmployee not being defined after taking out lines 36 to 38.

The class name should be PEmployee and not PEmploy. Instead of
class PEmploy
public:
PEmployee;
: public Person

{
try
class PEmployee
: public Person

{

I didn't catch that. Have been working on this for some time now. I changed my typing error and now in main, the name I used, get_name and get_salary are said to be inaccessible under lines 51, 69 and 74

there seems to be confusion between parent & child class definitions. following link may help you
