well i was following this tut and did it the exact same way but its not compiling

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

void printString(void);
  
void simpleFunc (void);

void main()

{
    cout <<"Before Function Call"<<endl;
    
        printString();
    
        cout <<"After Function Call"<<endl;

}

        void simpleFunc (void);

{
    cout <<"We are inside simple func"<<endl;
}

       void printString(void)

{
    cout <<"In Function Call"<<endl;
    
        cout<<"Hello World"<<endl;

    simpleFunc();
} 

error
c:\documents and settings\pc\desktop\p2vid\functions2\functions2\fun2.cpp(14) : errorC2447: '{' : missing function header (old-style formal list?) 

thanks for the help

Change:

void simpleFunc (void);
{
cout <<"We are inside simple func"<<endl;
}

to

void simpleFunc (void)
{
cout <<"We are inside simple func"<<endl;
}

Change:

void simpleFunc (void);
{
cout <<"We are inside simple func"<<endl;
}

to

void simpleFunc (void)
{
cout <<"We are inside simple func"<<endl;
}

Thanks so much just would like to know what is the difference between the 2 of them

i have the same problem with this one here

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

void printString(char *str);
int stringlength(char *str);

void main()
{
    

    int strlen = stringlength ("Dan");
    cout<< strlen<<endl;
}

int stringlength(char *str);

{
    int length =0;
    while (str[length] != '/0')/*!=doesnt= to know character 0*/
    lenght++;/*movin to next char in string*/

    return length;
}


void printString(char *str)
{
    
    cout<<"Hello"<< str <<endl;
} 

[DeNitro]

You need to remove the ; at the end of

int stringlength(char *str);

so it becomes

int stringlength(char *str)

(Not from the top declaration part, but from the actual function in the middle if your code)

void simpleFunc (void); is a function declaration.
void simpleFunc (void) is the start of a function definition.
