C++ Prototype Declaration not working in my code?

https://code.sololearn.com/cpkwZ1afYcJi/#cpp #include <iostream> #include <string> using namespace std; void allChecked(); void sike(); int main() { string nameString; cout << "What is your name?" << endl; cin >> nameString; if(nameString == "Winson") { int password = 1316; int passwordInteger; cout << "You're awesome ;)" << endl; cout << "What is the password?" << endl; cin >> passwordInteger; if(passwordInteger == password) { string favoriteArtist = "Frank Ocean"; string artistString; cout << "Correct, you may continue." << endl; cout << "Who's your favorite artist?" << endl; cin >> artistString; if(artistString == favoriteArtist) { allPassChecked(); } else { sike(); } } else { cout << "Imposter!" << endl; } } else { cout << "And you are?" << endl; } } void allPassChecked() { cout << "You are you, lol" << endl; } void sike() { cout << "Sike!" << endl; } When I'm declaring the functions as prototype above the main functions, the compiler reacts by saying it is not defined in the scope? Why is this?

Your forward declaration does not match your function allChecked != allPassChecked

:) It's an easy mistake to make. Don't feel too bad, we have all made such an error before.

That’s embarrassing, thank you! I looked it over and over but for it to be a syntax error...
