Why is this wrong?

This code is for some reason wrong. I've gone over it 20 times and cannot figure it out.

#include "second.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include "main.h"
using namespace std;

 second::second() {
     second(string z) {//error line
     setName(z);
     }
 void setName(string x){
 name = x;
 }
        string getName(){
        return name;
        }
};

two::two(){
int b = 45;
cout << b;
}
Edit & run on cpp.sh

Dont name one of your h files main.

Edit: Also, it looks like you're creating a class. But where is your class? Why are you using };? Im a bit confused.

Your code with some better looking formatting:

second::second() {
	second(string z) {//error line
		setName(z);
	}
	void setName(string x){
		name = x;
	}
	string getName(){
		return name;
	}
};


So you are trying to define 3 functions inside the definition of another function. You cannot define a function inside another function definition.
