The data type you're passing into calculate_total is wrong. C++ is seeing it as a pointer to an int. You're passing in a two dimensional array. You have to make the input type for your calculate_total function match the type of your array.

Also, all those extra []'s are invalid syntax. When passing in a variable defined as an array, pass in only the variable name.

// Invalid function call
f(myArray[]);

// Valid function call
f(myArray);

Inside of the actual function, what are you trying to do? Are you trying to modify an element of exam1, exam2, and exam3 to the value of exam[100][3]?

You're also missing the declaration of the array int exam[100][3]. I don't see it anywhere in your code.

And in the return of calculate_total, your return statement is malformed. You can only return one value, unlike Python where that would return a tuple containing three elements.

I observed the following issues in your code

1. read_file_in_array requires parenthesis. go=read_file_in_array; //Invalid Function Call

2. Passing Arrays as Arguments

3. display_totals requires parenthesis

4. Function prototypes were missing in the beginning

5. display_totals will return nothing. But you are assigning it to a variable

6. I don't understand what this calculate_total function is doing.

If this is your original code, there is a lot of issues in this code. I took this code as it is and compiled using Turbo c++ compiler. I got around 24 errors.

Can you please refactor your code and compile it.
