Here's the situation:
I just started my first C++ class. I know nothing about C++ and despite this being the an intro to C++ class, the teacher has taught pretty much NO syntax for the language, just logic that we already know.
Now he gave us a program description and said, "write it, lol." I understand the logic fine, but as I said before, I know nothing about C++. Thus I wrote it first in java (which I do know), and then once I got it working in java, I tried to code it over to C++.
However now I am getting the following error when I compile
uxb3% g++ -o Race race.cc
Undefined first referenced
symbol in file
main /usr/local/gcc-4.1.1/bin/../lib/gcc/sparc-sun-solaris2.10/4.1.1/crt1.o
ld: fatal: Symbol referencing errors. No output written to Race
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
Can someone please help me with this?
Here is my code in a .txt file: http://rapidshare.com/files/195742284/race.txt.html
