Hi everybody

I am trying to run a ROBOTC program with functions and I get an error

**Error**:Functions must be defined at main scope level

Do you have an example of its meaning?

Thanks very much for the help!

John

It sounds like you have mismatched braces. Make sure your code is indented properly. This will help you to spot mismatched braces. I don't have RobotC in front of me but there is an automatic "format whole file" item in the Edit menu if I remember correctly.

Thanks MHTS

I will try your suggestions.

John

It often helps to use the "Format Whole File" button (under the Edit menu, in the Code Formatting section).

Hi, everybody

Thanks for your help, but I think I must be doing
something that I cannot detect.

I am attaching the code. I have some errors that are
not related to the function issues which I will correct
once this problem is resolved.

What I am trying to do is write one function to be used
for all robot movement, that is, go straight, turn, reverse, etc., by using "sub functions" within the main "move" function. I must be doing something that is totally wrong in declaring these "sub-functions".

Again, thanks for taking the time to look at this problem of mine.

John

You're not calling functions correctly. Here is a simpler example of how to call functions:


Do not call functions by defining them, e.g. void move(int movetime);

p.s. Next time, please post your code in the [ code] [/code] tags provided.

Thanks magicode

PROBLEM SOLVED!!!!! I am a newbee!!!
