C++ cannot convert 'classname<int>' to 'int' in return -

i'm trying apply template original class program. got error of cannot covert 'move' 'int' in return. please help....

this template. error on line 40

#ifndef move0_h_   #define move0_h_ template <typename type>  class move {     private:         double x;         double y;     public:         move(double = 0, double b = 0); // sets x, y a, b         void showmove() const; // shows current x, y values         int add(const move & m) const;         // function adds x of m x of invoking object new x,         // adds y of m y of invoking object new y, creates new         // move object initialized new x, y values , returns         void reset(double = 0, double b = 0); // resets x,y a, b };  template<typename type> move<type>::move(double a, double b) {     x = a;     y = b; }  template<typename type> void move<type>::showmove() const {     std::cout << "x = " << x << ", y = " << y; }  template<typename type>  int move<type>::add(const move &m) const {     move temp;     temp.x = x + m.x;     temp.y = y + m.y;      return temp; }  template<typename type> void move<type>::reset(double a, double b) {     x = 0;     y = 0; } #endif 

below main program, program @ line 23

your add member function returns int:

int add(const move & m) const; 

but returning move object:

template<typename type>  int move<type>::add(const move &m) const {     move temp;     ...     return temp; } 

there no conversion move int. seems want return move:

move add(const move & m) const;
