"Call of overloaded FUNCTION is ambiguous" (Conversion Constructor C++)

Question

I'm trying to implement a conversion constructor in my c++ Point class and I am receiving the error "call of overloaded FUNCTION is ambiguous". What does this mean? Looking at how my instructor implemented the conversion constructor in her program I can't see what I'm doing wrong.

Here is the code in the header file:

Point(int n);

Here is the code in the class file:

//conversion constructor - initializes the data members from a 4 digit integer number 
//(yyxx).  If the number is less than 3 digits, set the data members to 0.
Point::Point(int n)
{
    int numDigits = 1;
    int temp = n; //temp variable to manipulate n while finding numDigits

    //while loop to find out how many digits
    while(temp/10 > 0)
    {
        numDigits++;
        temp = temp/10;
    }

    if(numDigits < 3)
    {
        x = 0;
        y = 0;
    }
    else if(numDigits == 3)
    {
        x = n%10;
        y = n/10;
    }
    else    //must be 4 digits
    {
        int y1 = n/10/10/10%10;
        int y2 = n/10/10%10;
        int x1 = n/10%10;
        int x2 = n%10;

        stringstream ss;
        ss << y1 << y2;
        string intStr1 = ss.str();

        ss << x1 << x2;
        string intStr2 = ss.str();

        x = std::stoi(intStr2);
        y = std::stoi(intStr1);

    }
}

and here is code in the driver file:

//conversion constructor
    Point x(123);
    Point y(1234);
    Point z(12);
    cout << "conversion constructor: 3 digits:           " << x.orderedPair() << endl;
    cout << "conversion constructor: 4 digits:           " << y.orderedPair() << endl;
    cout << "conversion constructor: less than 3 digits: " << z.orderedPair() << endl;

Any ideas what I should do to fix this?

Your constructors conflict with each other:

Point::Point(int x = 0, int y = 0);
Point::Point(int n);

And the compiler cannot choose which one to call. Perhaps, some separation will help:

Point::Point(); // default
Point::Point(int x, int y);
Point::Point(int n);
