Why are you using both C and (very old) C++ headers. Decide which
language you're using and stick to it. The only time you should be
mixing the two is with legacy applications written in C and you're
moving it to C++.

main returns int. Not void, float or struct foo.

No such function in Standard C (or C++), and you don't seem to define
it. Look up srand().

char* Area[] = {"North","South","East","West"};

Ignoring the fact that you fail to flush cout, those lines, if
copy/pasted, seem to be missing : on the ends of the lines.
Why you're getting seemingly impossible results are probably because
your program is invoking undefined behaviour.
