Solved
quick syntax fix needed

There's something very wrong with this function...month and day aren't being changed, and I can't figure out why! Also, I'm trying to check for bad data (also wanted to check to see if its valid at all, but that didn't quite work). I put into /* to isolate the other problem, but I would like this fixed too.void getdata(int *month, int *day)
{
printf("Please enter the month and day in the format mm/dd.");
scanf("%d/%d", *month, *day);
/* while(*month>12||*month<1|
{
printf("\nInput is incorrect. Please reenter:");
scanf("%d/%d", *month, *day);
} */
}
{
printf("Please enter the month and day in the format mm/dd.");
scanf("%d/%d", *month, *day);
/* while(*month>12||*month<1|
{
printf("\nInput is incorrect. Please reenter:");
scanf("%d/%d", *month, *day);
} */
}

This is a short and sweet, but (hopefully) to the point article. There seems to be some fundamental misunderstanding about the function prototype for the "main" function in C and C++, more specifically what type this function should return. I see so…
