[c++] Identifier not found error on function call

I have a program here where I invert the case of an entered string. This is the code in my .cpp file and I am using Visual Studio C++ IDE. I am not sure what I need in a header file or if I need one to make this work.

Error with my function call swapCase. Main does not see swapCase for some reason that I'm not sure of.

#include <cctype>
#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    char name[30];
    cout<<"Enter a name: ";
    cin.getline(name, 30);
    swapCase(name);
    cout<<"Changed case is: "<< name <<endl;
    _getch();
    return 0;
}

void swapCase (char* name)
{
    for(int i=0;name[i];i++)
    {
        if ( name[i] >= 'A' && name[i] <= 'Z' )
            name[i] += 32; //changing upper to lower
        else if( name[i] >= 'a' && name[i] <= 'z')
            name[i] -= 32; //changing lower to upper
    }
}

Any other tips for syntax or semantics is appreciated.

Unlike other languages you may be used to, everything in C++ has to be declared before it can be used. The compiler will read your source file from top to bottom, so when it gets to the call to swapCase, it doesn't know what it is so you get an error. You can declare your function ahead of main with a line like this:

void swapCase(char *name);

or you can simply move the entirety of that function ahead of main in the file. Don't worry about having the seemingly most important function (main) at the bottom of the file. It is very common in C or C++ to do that.

You have to define void swapCase before the main definition.

At the time the compiler encounters the call to swapCase in main(), it does not know about the function swapCase, so it reports an error. You can either move the definition of swapCase above main, or declare swap case above main:

void swapCase(char* name);

Also, the 32 in swapCase causes the reader to pause and wonder. The comment helps! In this context, it would add clarity to write

if ('A' <= name[i] && name[i] <= 'Z')
    name[i] += 'a' - 'A';
else if ('a' <= name[i] && name[i] <= 'z')
    name[i] += 'A' - 'a';

The construction in my if-tests is a matter of personal style. Yours were just fine. The main thing is the way to modify name[i] -- using the difference in 'a' vs. 'A' makes it more obvious what is going on, and nobody has to wonder if the '32' is actually correct.

Good luck learning!
