Hello there is an error with my code and i have been stuffing around with it for about an hour trying to get it to work but i have given up
and could use some assistance this is probably simple too so.
My error is its expecting an end to close the function
on line 1 

function wallOne()
for i = 1, 14 do
local itemcount
itemcount = turtle.getItemCount(1)
if itemcount == 0 then
  turtle.select(2)
else
  turtle.select(1)
  turtle.place()
  turtle.up()
  turtle.place()
  turtle.up()
  turtle.place()
  turtle.up()
  turtle.select(5)
  turtle.place()
  turtle.up()
  turtle.place()
  turtle.up()
  turtle.place()
  turtle.up()
  turtle.place()
  turtle.up()
  turtle.place()
  turtle.back()
  turtle.down()
  turtle.down()
  turtle.down()
  turtle.down()
  turtle.down()
  turtle.down()
  turtle.down()
  end
end

wallOne()

Same as before 'end' expected (to close 'function' at line 1)

You forgot to close the first "for-loop" since the first end closes the ifelse.

So your code should be like this:
Spoiler
function wallOne()
  for i = 1, 14 do
    local itemcount
    itemcount = turtle.getItemCount(1)
    if itemcount == 0 then
      turtle.select(2)
    else
      turtle.select(1)
      turtle.place()
      turtle.up()
      turtle.place()
      turtle.up()
      turtle.place()
      turtle.up()
      turtle.select(5)
      turtle.place()
      turtle.up()
      turtle.place()
      turtle.up()
      turtle.place()
      turtle.up()
      turtle.place()
      turtle.up()
      turtle.place()
      turtle.back()
      turtle.down()
      turtle.down()
      turtle.down()
      turtle.down()
      turtle.down()
      turtle.down()
      turtle.down()
    end
  end
end

wallOne()
Or do like Kaos did:
Spoiler
function wallOne()
  for i=1,14 do
    if turtle.getItemCount(1)==0 then
      turtle.select(2)
    else
      turtle.select(1)
    end
    for i=1,3 do
      turtle.place()
      turtle.up()
    end
    turtle.select(5)
    for i=1,4 do
      turtle.place()
      turtle.up()
    end
    turtle.place()
    turtle.back()
    for i=1,7 do
      turtle.down()
    end
  end
end

wallOne()
