I try to run the following, but I keep getting the error "error C2664: 'Card::SetName' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'const char [23]' to 'char'"

I also got the following error;
error C2664: 'Beginning' : cannot convert parameter 2 from 'std::vector<_Ty>' to 'std::vector<_Ty> &'

I'm not that familiar with Classes, Objects, and char/string, so I would like some help please

You can't do this: string SetName(char setName) {Name = setName; } You're trying to set a std::string equal to a char , which you can't do. You should try: string SetName(const string& setName) {Name = setName; }

Also, the second parameter in your prototype

void Beginning(vector<string> &KaibaHand, vector<string> &KaibaDeck);

requires a reference to a vector of strings, but here

Beginning(KaibaHand, KaibaDeck);

KaibaDeck is defined as

vector<Card> KaibaDeck(40);

a vector of Cards.

Thanks for the help. I made the changes but now I'm getting these errors

int DrawKaiba = rand() % KaibaDeckSize + 1;
cout<<"Random number is: "<<DrawKaiba<<" "<<endl;

cout<<"You drew "<<KaibaDeck[DrawKaiba-1].GetName()<<endl;
KaibaHand.push_back(KaibaDeck[DrawKaiba-1]);
KaibaDeck.erase (KaibaDeck.begin()+DrawKaiba-1);


}//DrawforKaiba

Again, you are calling DrawForKaiba with the wrong parameters. In your prototype you defined vector<string>, but you are calling it with vector<Card>; and since the string class doesn't have a method GetName, you get the error. Go over your code and ensure that the parameters you pass to your functions match those as defined in your prototypes!

ok I changed the vectors from type 'string' to 'Card'

But now I'm getting this error message

gt and it are not integers, they are iterators. Google on how to iterate through vectors.

You're using iterators incorrectly. You want to do something like gt->GetName() inside the loop, in the first example.

I just tried gt->GetName(). It works now! thanks
