First C++ Program Getting Errors

Ok so for an assignment we have to make our first program. Mine is to make a program that calculates the ticket revenue for each seating section at a theater. The problem is that I keep getting this undeclared identifier or identifier undefined error along with like 23 other errors. The program I am using is Visual Studio 2010 Premium.

Here is my code.

// Chp4HWprgm.cpp 
// Created by Bryce Easley on 2/6/2012
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(){
//declare variables

int orchestraNum = 0;
int mainNum = 0;
int balconyNum =0;
const orchestraPrice = 25;
const mainPrice = 30;
const balconyPrice = 15;

//enter input of sales
cout << "Number of Orchestra tickets sold?";
cin >> orchestraNum;
cout << "Number of Main Floor tickets sold?";
cin >> mainNum;
cout << "Number of Balcony tickets sold?";
cin >> balconyNum;

//calculate revenue for each and total revenue
orchestraTotal = orchestraNum * orchestraPrice;
mainTotal = mainNum * mainPrice;
balconyTotal = balconyNum * balconyPrice;
overallTotal = mainTotal + balconyTotal + orchestraTotal;

//display figures
cout <<"Orchestra Revenue: $" << orchestraTotal << endl;
cout <<"Main Floor Revenue: $" << mainTotal << endl;
cout <<"Balcony Revenue: $" << balconyTotal << endl;
cout <<"Overall Revenue: $" << overallTotal << endl;

system("pause");
return 0;}
//end of main function

Here are my errors:

Error 6 error C2065: 'balconyTotal' : undeclared identifier c:\users\bryce\desktop\cpp6\chap04\chapter4hw\chapter4hw\chp4hw.cpp 28 1 Chapter4HW Error 9 error C2065: 'balconyTotal' : undeclared identifier c:\users\bryce\desktop\cpp6\chap04\chapter4hw\chapter4hw\chp4hw.cpp 29 1 Chapter4HW Error 13 error C2065: 'balconyTotal' : undeclared identifier c:\users\bryce\desktop\cpp6\chap04\chapter4hw\chapter4hw\chp4hw.cpp 34 1 Chapter4HW Error 5 error C2065: 'mainTotal' : undeclared identifier c:\users\bryce\desktop\cpp6\chap04\chapter4hw\chapter4hw\chp4hw.cpp 27 1 Chapter4HW Error 8 error C2065: 'mainTotal' : undeclared identifier c:\users\bryce\desktop\cpp6\chap04\chapter4hw\chapter4hw\chp4hw.cpp 29 1 Chapter4HW Error 12 error C2065: 'mainTotal' : undeclared identifier c:\users\bryce\desktop\cpp6\chap04\chapter4hw\chapter4hw\chp4hw.cpp 33 1 Chapter4HW Error 4 error C2065: 'orchestraTotal' : undeclared identifier c:\users\bryce\desktop\cpp6\chap04\chapter4hw\chapter4hw\chp4hw.cpp 26 1 Chapter4HW Error 10 error C2065: 'orchestraTotal' : undeclared identifier c:\users\bryce\desktop\cpp6\chap04\chapter4hw\chapter4hw\chp4hw.cpp 29 1 Chapter4HW Error 11 error C2065: 'orchestraTotal' : undeclared identifier c:\users\bryce\desktop\cpp6\chap04\chapter4hw\chapter4hw\chp4hw.cpp 32 1 Chapter4HW Error 7 error C2065: 'overallTotal' : undeclared identifier c:\users\bryce\desktop\cpp6\chap04\chapter4hw\chapter4hw\chp4hw.cpp 29 1 Chapter4HW Error 14 error C2065: 'overallTotal' : undeclared identifier c:\users\bryce\desktop\cpp6\chap04\chapter4hw\chapter4hw\chp4hw.cpp 35 1 Chapter4HW Error 1 error C4430: missing type specifier - int assumed.

Gracias to everyone that answered. I seriously stared at this forever and I couldnt figure it out. It's like learning a whole new language and it's a bit confusing!

you have not declared the 4 variables:

mainTotal, bacolnyTotal, orchestraTotal, overallTotal

orchestraTotal = orchestraNum * orchestraPrice;
mainTotal = mainNum * mainPrice;
balconyTotal = balconyNum * balconyPrice;
overallTotal = mainTotal + balconyTotal + orchestraTotal;

Turn these into definitions and you should be fine. You don't declare or define any of these variables before using them, that's why the compiler is printing errors.

Understanding compiler errors is something you'll soon learn, as you practise!

const isn't a type, it's a modifier. orchestraPrice should be declared:

const int orchestraPrice = 25;

You have three similar lines with the same problem.

And you haven't declared orchestraTotal before you use it. Try this instead:

const int orchestraTotal = orchestraNum * orchestraPrice;

Again, you have three similar lines with the same problem.

I recommend reading a book or two on C++. See The Definitive C++ Book Guide and List .

Good luck!

You need to declare variables before you use or while you initialize them.

int orchestraTotal = orchestraNum * orchestraPrice;
int mainTotal = mainNum * mainPrice;
int balconyTotal = balconyNum * balconyPrice;
int overallTotal = mainTotal + balconyTotal + orchestraTotal;

You need to declare your constants and total variables with types:

const int orchestraPrice = 25; 
const int mainPrice = 30; 
const int balconyPrice = 15;

...

//calculate revenue for each and total revenue 
int orchestraTotal = orchestraNum * orchestraPrice; 
int mainTotal = mainNum * mainPrice; 
int balconyTotal = balconyNum * balconyPrice; 
int overallTotal = mainTotal + balconyTotal + orchestraTotal;
