how can I run the function it keeps saying period(IO) not declared in this function



#include <iostream>
#include <math.h>

//the following nested if-else statements define the output for possible scenario values of a, b, and c
if(a<b)

cout << a << c << b;
else
cout << c << a << b;

}

}

[AbstractionAnon]

it keeps saying period(IO) not declared in this function

Because you never declared it?

Your switch statement calls periodIO, sort3IO, tripletsIO, quadraticEquationIO and unsignedLongIO, but you have no such functions in your program.

PLEASE USE CODE TAGS (the <> formatting button) when posting code. It makes it easier to help you.

[Robert Donovan]

when your calling a return function you need to have a variable to return a value into so most importantly as AbsractionAnon said the functions you call in the switch statement don't exist. if you were trying to display the result of one of these functions use something like float display = period(); cout << display << "\n";
