error on my sketch

You cannot have an int variable and a function with the same name.

I thought you could. The compiler should be able to figure it out.

Why? They are both just symbols.

I'm sure that you've seen people posting here something like:

void myFun()
{
}

void loop()
{
   myFun;
}

wondering why muFun was not called. The compiler just saw a symbol that was not syntactically invalid. That's really no different from:

void loop()
{
   7;
}

Useless, but perfectly legal.

yeah i want both motors run sir and i make a functian and ^^ no errors thx sir

Do you know how to make one motor run, either way will do to start with ?
You are probably using a motor shield (which one ?) Are there any example programs for it ?

here the code is succes working but i cant use on my PID program :frowning:

Since you didn't volunteer, I'll drag it out of you. Why can't you? PID computes an output based on an input and a setup, with the objective of moving the input closer to the setpoint, by changing the output.

If the setpoint is the desired speed, and the input is the actual speed, the output would be the required change in speed/pwm setting/etc. to get the current speed closer to the desired speed.

It isn't clear what your inputs, outpoints, or setpoints would be, though.
