Please use code tags so that you'll get people interested in reading your code and faster answers

Sorry, this is my first time.

Your code should be executed or called within main..Example

int main()
{
if (some_condition)
{

}
else if(some_other_condition)
{

}

return 0
}

You have a whole lot of code that isn't contained within main or any callable function.

#include <iostream>

bool myfunc(const char *s)//function - myfunc starts
{
	if (std::cout << s << std::endl)
	{
		return true;
	}
	else
	{
		return false;
	}
}//function - myfunc ends

unsigned long double_it(unsigned long val)//function - double_it starts
{
	return val * 2;
}//function - double_it ends

int main(void) 
{
	unsigned long ans = 0;

	myfunc("test string");//function call

	ans = double_it(123);//function call

	std::cout << ans << std::endl;

	return 0;
}

my teacher gave us code to start out with and he included

int main(void);

 

void menu(void);

int getChoice(void);

 

void calendarToJulian(void);

void getCalendarDate(int *month, int *day, int *year);

 

void julianToCalendar(void);

void getJulianDate(int *day, int *year);

 

int isLeapYear(int year);

 

FILE *csis;

 

int main(void) {

    int choice;

   

    fopen_s(&csis, "csis.dat", "w");

    do {

        choice = getChoice();

        switch (choice) {

            case 1 : calendarToJulian(); break;

            case 2 : julianToCalendar(); break;

            case 3 : break;

        }

    }

    while (choice != 3);

    return 0;

}

 

int isLeapYear(int year) {

     return ((!(year % 4) && year % 100) || !(year % 400));

}

so thats how he wants us to start

Yeah, so?

What is int main(void) supposed to do?
How about void menu(void) ?
Is there a reason for int getChoice(void) ?
etc.

So start with what he wants. Figure out what the functions are supposed to do. Add code in short segments. And compile often.
