Help me in c++

Question

how can i fix the error
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
struct time{
int hour, minute, second;
};
time computeTimeDifference(time t1, time t2){
return t1 - t2;
}
int main(){
time TIMEDIFFERENCE, T1, T2;
cout << "Enter hours, minutes and seconds respectively:\n";
cin>> T1.hour >> T1.minute >>T1.second;
cout <<"Enter stop time";
cout << "Enter hours, minutes and seconds respectively:\n";
cin>> T2.hour >> T2.minute >>T2.second;
TIMEDIFFERENCE computeTimeDifference(T1, T2);

Answer 1

What do you expect from t1-t2 statement inside computeTimeDifference function? And you think that compiler know that?

Answer 2

Then, time is a name of a function which iostream include... Use another name... Futhermore you defined a structure and you expect that compiler know how do subtraction between 2 objects of this struct and is not true. You have to define a function that do the subtraction and return it

Answer 3

You are welcome.. Anyway i suggest 2 things: first, read always compiler error output and second, when post some code here, use code bits so is more easy help

Answer 4

this is the rest of the code

cout<<"TIME DIFFERENCE:" <<T1.hour<<":"<<T1.minute<<":"<<T1.second;
cout << " - " << T2.hour<<":"<<T2.minute <<":"<<T2.second;
cout << " = "<< TIMEDIFFERENCE.hour <<":" <<TIMEDIFFERENCE.minute <<":"<<TIMEDIFFERENCE.second;
return 0;
}

Answer 5

where should i put it ?

Answer 6

ok thank you
