Sarcastic, aren't we? If you want help, you need to explain what the program is supposed to do. You have #include statements that are redundant, but that doesn't cause the error. Your problem is here:
else(){Get rid of the parentheses.

Yes, there are other problems, but I don't feel like saying anymore just now.

why not use a switch? that would save you a LOT of trouble, be much easier to manage and add and would make your code much more clean ;)
