Question

here is my code from which can’t understand where is error

#include <iostream>
#include<iomanip>
using namespace std;
#define narray 8;// array size;
#define  nbucket 5;// bucket size;
#define interval 10;// bucket range
struct node
{
int data;
struct node *next;
};
void BucketSort(int arr[]);
struct node *InsertionSort(struct Node *list);
void print(int arr[]);
void printBuckets(struct Node *list);
int getBucketIndex(int value);
void BucketSort(int arr[])
{

 int i,j;
 struct node **buckets;
 buckets = (struct node **)malloc(sizeof(struct node*) * nbucket); 
 for (i=0;i<nbucket;i++){
      buckets[i]=NULL;
 }
 for (int i=0;i<narray;i++){
  struct node *current;
  int pos=getBucketIndex(arr[i]);
  current=(struct node *)malloc(sizeof(struct node));
  current->data=arr[i];
  current->next=buckets[pos];
  buckets[pos]=current;


 }

}


int main(){





 return 0;
}

errors are a lot of,for example

Remove the ; from #define nbucket 5; and the other defines.

At the moment, line 22 is expanded by the preprocessor to become the obviously-invalid:

buckets = (struct node **)malloc(sizeof(struct node*) * 5;);
//                                                      ^^
