PIZZA_AREA not declared but its in there?

i see pizza_area declared

i dont see PIZZA_AREA declaration

also u got a statement without semicolon

[tall cosmos]

I redid some code, but its still telling me PIZZA_AREA not declared

[torpid frigate]

ye, its not

[tall cosmos]

So under B where I calc the pizza area it should be float instead of double?

Oh okay I was missing my ;'s

I'm dumb ty ty

[torpid frigate]

did u edit, PIZZA_AREA wasnt declared on ur original message

and yea

u also missed a ;

name identifiers are case sensitive in c++

[tall cosmos]

Updated message

[torpid frigate]

so PIZZA and pizza refer different variables

[tall cosmos]

To show code I have in right now

[torpid frigate]

oki

[tall cosmos]

the ceil() function

does it stay blank

or do I have to have a number in there

so the outcome is a whole number

@tall cosmos Has your question been resolved? If so, run !solved :)

Ty @torpid frigate

!solved
