I'm a noob in C++, but as fast I can see that "storage" is not declared in function void (line 20).

Sorry for the last post, I made a mistake (no coffee), first of all, you must declare your class before the rest of the functions.

The second mistake is on your display, you should correct the

storage[element].getprice()

because you had it without parentheses.

The other error '\stray 342' refers that you should look carefully at single or double commas. The error '\stray 200' means that you should look carefully at minus signs.

And again, sorry for the last post. Man, I need another cup of coffee ...
