class telnumber
{
public:
	telnumber();
	telnumber (string i_npa, string i_nxx, string i_line);
	virtual ~telnumber(); // the destructor must be virtual
	void setnpa (string newnpa);
	void setnxx (string newnxx);
	void setline (string newline);
	string getnpa();
	string getnxx();
	string getline();
        
        // This must be defined or it should be declared as a pure virtual 
	virtual void printtostream(ostream& out);  
	
private:
	string npa;
	string nxx;
	string line;
	
};

And on line 190:

void < a class name here? >::printtostream(ostream& out)

Implement every non-pure virtual function in a class with at least one of them being defined out of line.
