You wrong type function declaration. It does not match the definition you write after main() function

Number and types of parameters must match

EDIT: I missed your declaration of skill() at the top of your file previously. Your code should be: #include <iostream> using namespace std; int skill(int a=10,int b=10); int main() { int c=skill(); cout<<c; return 0; } int skill(int a,int b){ int sum= a+b; return sum; }

But if I write "skill" function above int main(), then everything works fine. (I'm new to C++ can't understand why it can't work with "skill" function under int main())

Thank you Xan. Such a simple mistake, but so crucial...
