Here, we will learn why an error Expected '}' before 'else' and how to fix it in C programming language? By IncludeHelp Last updated : March 10, 2024

Error: Expected '}' before 'else'

Error: Expected '}' before 'else' occurs, if closing scope curly brace of if statement is missing.

Consider the code:

Example

include

int main[] { int a = 10; if[a == 10] {

printf["Yes!\n"];  

printf["No!\n"];  

prog.cpp: In function ‘int main[]’: prog.cpp:10:2: error: expected ‘}’ before ‘else’ else ^~

How to fix?

See the code, closing curly brace } is missing before else statement. To fix this error - close the if statement's scope properly.

Correct Code

include

int main[] { int a = 10; if[a == 10] {

printf["Yes!\n"];  

printf["No!\n"];  

Yes!

Reimplementing a large system in another language to get a 25% performance boost is nonsense. It would be cheaper to just get a computer which is 25% faster.

cout pass; cin.ignore[]; if [ pass != 1098765432 ] { cout
