Can someone explain

Question

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()

int ppl; //number of ppl needing candles
const int candles = 9; //candles per person
int need;
cout << "how many people need candles";
cin >> ppl;
need = ppl * candles;
cout << need;
return 0;
}
Gives the following
Line 6, expected initializer before int
9 ,11, 12 cout does not declare a type
10 cin does not declare a type

Answer 1

You are missing an open curly brace after main() method.
