I keep getting "error: reached end of file while parsing". Any suggestions as to how to fix this problem?

I have double checked and made sure that my program matched the instructor's program in the video. This is the second lesson now where the compiler fails to show my program. Suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!

You're probably missing a curly brace {} at some point, however it would be nice to see your code to check what's happening.

Thank you Daniel! I appreciate the response. It wouldn't surprise me if it's something that simple lol. I'll provide a snapshot once I get home. Thanks!
