Problems with C ++ with an array of objects

Question

We have a task to create a blackjack game.

Bellow is a simplified version of my code:

#include <iostream> #include <string> #include <time.h> using namespace std; class Deck { private: Card cards[52]; <-- HERE!! public: }; class Card { private: int suit; int number; public: int getSuit(); int getNumber(); void setCard(int suit, int number); }; int Card::getSuit() { return suit; } int Card::getNumber() { return number; } void Card::setCard(int s, int n) { suit = s; number = n; } class Players { private: Card PlayersCards[10]; public: /*Card getCard();*/ }; //Card Players::getCard() //{ // return; //} int main() { Players user; cin.get(); cin.get(); return 0; } 

The problem is creating an array of objects. the compiler gives me the following errors:

Error C3646 'cards': unknown override specifier

Error C2143 with the syntax: missing ',' before '['

Error C2143 syntax error: missing ')' before ';'

Error C2238 unexpected token (s) preceding ';'

What is wrong with my code?

Answer 1

The compiler does not know what Map is, therefore, it cannot generate the correct code.

The Card class must be declared before the Deck class because Card included in Deck .

 class Card { /// stuff - allows compiler to work out the size of one Card. }; class Deck { private: Card cards[52]; // knows how to create 52 of these. }; // implementation can go later. int Card::getSuit() { return suit; }
