Drop lowest score program

[laserpp]

Need help, in my 2nd C++ class and my prof is this 80+ year old guy who shouldnt be teaching and is confusing the hell out of me.

I did this exact program last year and showed this guy and he was like its all wrong. So i tried making it to his liking but I am getting an error and no clue why.

//Jonathan Salina       Lowest Score Drop      6-7

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

//function prototypes
void getScore();
void calcAverage(int, int, int, int, int);
int findLowest(int, int, int, int, int);

int main()
{
	
	getScore();


	return 0;
}




//function to collect the 5 test scores
void getScore(int s1, int s2, int s3, int s4, int s5)
{

	cin >> s1;
	cin >> s2;
	cin >> s3;
	cin >> s4;
	cin >> s5;

	calcAverage(s1, s2, s3, s4, s5);

}

//function to calculate the average of the 4 highest test scores
void calcAverage(int s1, int s2, int s3, int s4, int s5)
{
	int average;
	int lowest; 
		
	lowest = findLowest(s1, s2, s3, s4, s5);

	average = ((s1 + s2 + s3 + s4 + s5) - lowest)/4;
	cout << endl;
	cout << "The average of the four highest test scores is: ";
	cout << average << endl;

}


//function to find the lowest test score
int findLowest(int s1, int s2, int s3, int s4, int s5)
{
	int lowest = s1;

	if (lowest > s2)
		lowest = s2;
	if (lowest > s3)
		lowest = s3;
	if (lowest > s4)
		lowest = s4;
	if (lowest > s5)
		lowest = s5;

	return lowest;
}

the error i am getting is: error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "void __cdecl getScore(void)" (?getScore@@YAXXZ) referenced in function _main

it's because your function prototype void getScore(void) doesn't match up your function usage void getScore(int,int,int,int,int)
