Urgent! Please help.
I am making a program that will calculate the surface are and volume of geometric figures, with C++ visual studio 6. The variable sora stands for surface are or volume. Although the portion of the program that calculates spheres, and cylinders work I am not sure why the prism and the pyramid are being skipped, leading me straight to the return(0);. I would appreciate if someone could tell me the error in my code.
Thanks in advance.

Why is so many threads marked with urgent? Are you an Egyptian king that will soon die so you need this program to work otherwise you can not finish the pyramid in time?
Please put your code in code tags
Please put your code in code tags
Your code, but a different looks

now at line number 63 in your code (my post)
replace the } with }} (i.e. add one more)
.
And let this be a lesson to you about the importance of code clarity and paranthesis

I apologize if the "Urgent" is undesirable, and i will make sure to include the code tags next time, I am new, but that shouldn't be an excuse. Thank you for the help I will try this out as soon as i'm able.
