I get this error:
Parse error: parse error, unexpected $ in [file] on line 63
Where [file] is the path and filename for a file containing:
<?php

return 'a city';
};

function powercentres($pop){//determines power centres for a city

$pcs=array();
if($pop<=80){
$roll=rand(1,20);
$align=rand(1,100);
if($align<=35){
$pcs[1]=array('align'=>'lawful good');
}elseif($align<=39){

};

};

function sherrif($npcs){//chooses the sherrif
return 1;
};

function makecity($pop){//creates stats for 1 city
$city=array(
'name'=>cityname(),
'pop'=>$pop,
'urbanarea'=>($pop/38850),//38,850 people per square mile
'supportarea'=>($pop/180),//1 square mile can support 180 people
'powercentres'=>powercentres($pop),
'NPCs'=>npc($pop),
'fulltimeLEO'=>floor($pop/100),//1 LEO per 100 people (DMG)
'conscriptable'=>floor($pop/20)//1 conscriptable individual per 20 pop
(DMG)
);
$city['sherrif']=sherrif($city['NPCs']);
return($city);
}
?>

I know that some of the functions are returning before they do anything
(I'm going bugeyed and want to make sure the overall works). What's
this error from?

TIA,
