Why wont this compile?

#include <ctime>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    //Array processing
    int info[5][2];     //Array with 10 elements
    int amt, amto, amtt, amtr, amtv;
    int x=0;          //counter
    int y;            //number of elements in array
    int value=0;      //input value
    int total=0;      //total
    float average;    //average
    int stop=0;
   
    cout<<"\nThis program will calculate the average of up to 10 numbers\n";
    while(value!=-1)
    {
            cout<<"Enter sales ID number: ";
            cin>>value;
            if (value=1)
            {
              cout<<"Enter sales amount: ";
              cin>>amto;
            )
            else if (value=2)
            {
              cout<<"Enter sales amount: ";
              cin>>amtt;
            )
            else if (value=3)
            {
              cout<<"Enter sales amount: ";
              cin>>amtr;
            )
            else if (value=4)
            {
              cout<<"Enter sales amount: ";
              cin>>amtf;
            )
            else if (value=5)
            {
              cout<<"Enter sales amount: ";
              cin>>amtv;
            }
            }

There's more stuff after it, but this is what's important.

I keep getting these errors.
"27 expected primary-expression before ')' token "
"27 expected `;' before ')' token "

Can anyone help me!?

Learn C before C++? Are you retarded? If he done that we'd have him not defining functions before invoking them, abusing the preprocessor, flooding the global namespace with identifiers and other such things.

Truth is if C programmers compiled their code with a C++ compiler they'd be better off anyways. They could even make use of several language constructs like enumerated constants, namespaces, constant variable declarations,  etc. to make their job easier on themselves. Note those are all abstract constructs that when compiled will not "slow down their code."

Ok, forgive me, I don't code in C so I was mistaken. You DO have to declare a function before use, however you don't have to give your prototype a parameter list. This compiles perfectly:

void fourchan();

int main()
{
 int dickNipples;
 fourchan(dickNipples);
 return 0;
}

void fourchan(int pDickNipples)
{
}

And because of this feature alone C DOESN'T and CAN'T have function polymorphism.
void fourchan();
void fourchan(char shit);

int main()
{
 int dickNipples;
 fourchan(dickNipples);
 fourchan('&');
 return 0;
}

void fourchan(int pDickNipples)
{
}

void fourchan(char pShit)
{
}

This isn't even mentioning how you C fags reinvent the wheel everytime you pass a structure pointer to a function, forgetting that classes in C++ could easily do that job for you and take away the unnecessary micro-management.

Unless you're in driver or kernel development you have no fucking reason to code in C.

You're a dumbass but I'll bite. No, you're not coding in C++ unless you use C++ constructs. C++ was made to be [largely] backwards compatible with C, blah blah blah, buy more ram. Forced indentation of code, thread over.

And bloated? I dare you look into how classes actually look once compiled. Many contructs in C++ are just meant to be a concept for abstraction, meaning they don't actually "become" code. I'm just saying that many C developers would find it easier if they ran their code through a C++ compiler and -maybe- use a few of the features provided since C++'s tighter restrictions will undoubtedly fix many of the bugs before they happen.

Why is it bad practice to not prototype functions?
