I am using Visual C++ 6.0 and I am trying to use an if else statment but unable to resolve error. Here is the code:
/*--------------------------------------------------------*/
/* Program Homework 3_3 */
/* */
/* This program computes the roots of a */
/* 2nd degree polonomial */
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
int main (void)
{
/* Declare variables */
double a, b, c, x;
/* Inform and request info from user to */
/* preform If else function. */
// restart_a
printf("Please enter a value for a"
"inbetween 1 & 2: \n");
scanf("%lf",&a);
if (a >= 1 && a <= 2);
printf("Thanks for choosing a valid character. \n");
else
printf("Invalid entry! \n");
// restart_a
printf("a: %8.3f \n",a);
/* Exit program. */
return 0;
}
/*--------------------------------------------------------*/
The error that I am getting is:
--------------------Configuration: HomeW3_3 - Win32 Debug--------------------
Compiling...
HomeW3_3.c
\homew3_3.c(33) : error C2181: illegal else without matching if
Error executing cl.exe.
HomeW3_3.exe - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
Thanks for the help.
