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!?

Right numbnuts, so when I write my sort function to take an additional argument f, a function to compare two items, how is sort() supposed to know the type of f() when the whole point is that it could be any type because we're trying to make the damn thing polymorphic?
