I need help with a date class.

I need help with this code:

Code:

#ifndef DATE_H
#define DATE_H

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

class date

        July=7,
        August=8,

        October=10,
        November=11,
        December=12

              redo=0;                  //I have to use if and elses because switchs don't work with emums.
              if(tmonth=="January")

when I try to compile it I get these bugs

ISO C++ forbids declaration of `ostream' with no type
`ostream' is neither function nor member function; cannot be declared friend
expected `;' before "operator"
ISO C++ forbids declaration of `istream' with no type
`istream' is neither function nor member function; cannot be declared friend
expected `;' before "operator"
expected constructor, destructor, or type conversion before "operator"
expected constructor, destructor, or type conversion before "operator"

Instead of &ostream, write ostream& since you are declaring that the function returns a reference to an ostream, not trying to take the address of ostream (which does not make sense). The same goes for istream. Also, the overloaded operator<< should take the date object by const reference.
