[Dev-C++] compilation error

[David <dj...@td...>]

I'm learning c++ and in a program I'm working on, I have this line:
return int strcomp(koala, input_k);
When I try to compile, I get this error:
parse error before `('
I'm not quite sure about the syntax, and I have no idea what the error =
means. Can someone help me?

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

The line should be:
return strcmp(koala,input_k);
I assume the function is called strcmp() and not strcomp() - the first
name is a standard function.
Forget about the int word - it is the return type of strcmp...
