Help with the functions challenge!

I tried almost everything, it keeps saying that { is unqualified or something like that, here is my code...

float addTwo (float a, float b);

{ float a = 11.5; float b = 15.5;

int result = addTwo(a, b); printf("addTwo %d\n", result); return 0; }

int addTwo (float a, float b); {return a + b;}

Please help!

When you are adding 2 Float variables, then you have to store the sum of those 2 variables in a "float" variable as well. You cannot store the sum of 2 float variables into an int variable. Hope that helps.

Thank you for replying but now there is a different issue...

expected unqualified-id { ^ 2 errors generated.

that is the problem after I fixed the "int" to "float"
