Hey guys,
I just wanted to ask why this error kept on showing up, i looked at everything, but i couldn't find anything, so maybe one of your eyes will catch something.
Here's my code:

#include <iostream>
#include <time.h>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

float FarenheitToCelsius (float);

int main()
{
	//Integers
	int a;
	float b = 0;
	int c;
	float d;
	int e;
	

	//Title and choosing what you want
	cout << endl << " Welcome To The TCVM. " << endl;

	cout << endl << " The [T]emperature [C]urrency [V]olume [M]ass [U]nit [C]onverter" << endl << endl << endl;

	while (1)
	{
		system("pause");
		system("cls");

		cout << endl << "What would you like to convert? " << endl;

		cout << endl << "1. [T]emperature. " << endl;

		cout << endl << "2. [C]urrency. " << endl;

		cout << endl << "3. [V]olume. " << endl;

		cout << endl << "4. [M]ass. " << endl;

		cout << endl << "5. [Q[uit. " << endl;

		cout << endl << " ";

		cin >> a;

		//Temperatures
		if (a == 1)
		{
			system("pause");
			system("cls");
			
			float degreesInCelsius;
			float degreesInFahrenheit;
			float FarenheitToCelsius;

			cout << " Ok, you want to convert temperatures. " << endl;

			cout << " Please enter the temperature in Fahrenheit that you wish to convert: " << endl;

			cin >> degreesInFahrenheit;

			degreesInCelsius = FTC (degreesInFahrenheit);
		}

		//Currency
		else if (a == 2)
		{
			system("pause");
			system("cls");
			
			cout << endl <<" Ok, you want to convert Currency. " << endl;
		
			cout << " Please choose what currency you would like to convert to: " << endl;

			cout << endl <<" 1. Euro. " << endl;

			if (c == 1)
			{
				system ("pause");
				system ("cls");

				cout << endl <<" Ok, Euro it is." << endl;

				cout << endl <<" Please enter the amount of U.S. Dollars that you would like converted: " << endl;

				cout << endl <<" The converted amount in Euros is: " << d << endl;
			}

			else if (c == 2)
			{
				system ("pause");
				system ("cls");

				cout << endl <<" Ok, the British Pound it is." << endl;

				cout << endl <<" Please enter the amount of U.S. Dollars that you would like converted: " << endl;

				cin >> d;

				d = d * 0.60510;

				cout << endl <<" The converted amount in Pounds is: " << d << endl;
			}

			else if (c == 3)
			{
				system ("pause");

				cout << endl <<" The converted amount in Chinese Yuan Renminbi is: " << d << endl;
			}
		
		}
	}
	system("pause");
	return 0;
}

float FTC(float degreesInFahrenheit)
{
    float degreesInCelsius = degreesInFahrenheit - 32;
    return(degreesInCelsius)*.55;
}

So
Any Help Is Appreciated

Thanks!

I think the program would be easier to maintain if all of those options were composed of one or more functions being called.

switch(a)
{
case 1:
  DoTemperature();
}
