was working on seven segment display and deleted unnecessary lines of code

I tried on a different sketch hoping it was a fluke and re formatting the code but i cant seem to solve the problem where it was working fine around 30 mins ago
from what I can tell this can be traced from the "function definition is not allowed" from researching on the internet this is due to improper indentation but I cant seem to find any missing brackets or similar syntax missing
I hope someone could fix this problem for me
