Question

I did not see anything that address my particular code problem.

I have a bool function in a class; the bool function is named:

bool Triplet::operator ==(const Triplet& operand)const {
    if( (data[0] == operand.data[0]) &&
            (data[1] == operand.data[1]) &&
            (data[2] == operand.data[2]))
        return true; 
        ...

And I am trying to call it in Main but having problems just getting the call right. Apparently if I leave out any thing in the wording it gives an error that I have too few aruguments and if I try to use the entire wording of the function, I get the error that I need a semi-colon, but I already have a semi-colon at the end of the call, so I know that something else is wrong and I simply cannot figure out what is wrong!
Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

That is a C++ operator overload, it is designed so it can change the behaviour of the normal operator:

Triplet a, b;
if (a == b) // calls Triplet::operator==()

If you really want to, you can call the operator by name:

if (a.operator==(b))
