I dont have inputenc written twice. at least i dont have it in my main tex file. i'm not sure what could be causing this error and could use some help in troubleshooting it.

and heres the error I'm getting:
LaTeX Error: Option clash for package inputenc.
See the LaTeX manual or LaTeX Companion for explanation.
Type H <return> for immediate help.

l.2 \usepackage
[british,UKenglish]{babel}
The package inputenc has already been loaded with options:
[utf8]
There has now been an attempt to load it with options
[utf8x]
Adding the global options:
utf8,utf8x
to your \documentclass declaration may fix this.
Try typing <return> to proceed.

so i narrowed it down to this one line. after rolling back to when the project was working and slowly adding back the changes this is the line causing the code not to compile.

Best Answer
Your document's code suffers from several commonly-encountered problems:
Load the
hyperref
package last. There are very few exceptions to this rule. (Thecleveref
package is one of those exceptions: It must be loaded afterhyperref
.)Don't load both
subfig
andsubcaption
. They are not mutually compatible. Choose only one or the other, but not both.The instruction
is faulty. Apart from having to load the
listings
package -- something your code fails to do -- in order to activate the\lstset
macro, the instruction should befor it to work. Can you spot the difference?
Don't use the Plain-TeX instruction
\bf
in a LaTeX document. Use\bfseries
instead.Don't use
{
and}
needlessly -- it just creates code clutter. Thus, instead ofjust write
or, better still,
Do check if you really need to load all those packages. I can't help getting the impression that some of them are being loaded for no discernible reason.
With the recommendations above put in place, this is the output one gets:
