I was asked
"This program should calculate which of four company divisions had the highest sales for the last year. The program should ask for the annual sales for the four divisions. The function should calculate which division has the highest amount in sales and return that amount to the calling program. The program should not accept sales amounts less than 0. The output should look like the example below.
Highest division sales for the prior year: $xxx,xxx,xxx.xx"
I'm getting the errors:

What am I doing wrong?
