Simply means that the function you called is written after where you called it from so the program doesnt know about it. you need to give it a prototype so the compiler knows what it is. for example: void myfunction2(); // prototype <--- void myfunction1() { // call my function 2 myfunction2(); } void myfunction2() { cout << "Hello"; }

If your Program has a function and the definition of that function is given after main() then you will have to give a prototype of that function before main() function so that the compiler does not get confused.
