This is what I have so far....

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
{char discount;
int age;
double price;
cout << "How old are you? ";
cin >> age;
if(age > 17)
price = 8;
else
price = 6;
cout << "Do you have a discount coupon(y/n)?\n";

}

I can not figure out why this will not compile and run? Need some help? My question to the problem is below..

Design a program that ask a user for their age and whether or not they have a discount coupon. If they are over the age of 17 then the ticket price is $8.00. If they are not over 17 then the ticket price is $6.00. If they input y for coupon then the ticket price discount is 25%.

1. Paste any errors you have. If you don't paste the errors, we don't know where to look.

2. There's a { before char discount that shouldn't be there.
