C++ :: Guessing Game - How To Successfully Loop Back To The Beginning
Feb 5, 2015
So I'm making my first program w/ C++ and its a game guessing game. I've learned how to use booleans, chars, strings, if/else, loops, and input. Anything past that I dont know. I've gotten my game to work properly except for the fact that when you guess incorrectly, the program closes. I want the program to go to the beginning of the program again so the user can restart. So far i've gotten the loop to beginning thing to work but not well. It'll only repeat twice before closing again and it'll say the user got the wrong answer even if it was correct. Here's my code
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <random>
#include<ctime>
using namespace std;
int game(){
string playerName;
int guess;

I am writing another program and I cannot find for the life of me how to loop the program back to the start of a function.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(void) {
int choice;
char band1, band2, band3, band4;
printf ("This program calculates the resistor value based on the colours of the wire.
(enter the integer near the command)
");
printf ("What would you like to do?
[Code].....
This is my current iteration of the program. Obviously, I haven't finished writing the case 1 of the first switch, but for the other ones. I thought that return main would cause the program to loop back to the beginning after executing the case, but I see that it is not the case (pun not intended). Anyways, what would I have to insert to cause the program to loop again (other than for case 3)? And another question, why is it that in scanf in the first case, the program only accepts two characters before finishing?

I was asked by my teacher to create while loop for this, iv have completely for gotten how and all the tutorial that i have found show basic lopping.
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
void checkAnswers(char[], char[], int, int);
int main(int argc, const char * argv[]) {
int choice = 0;
const int num_question=20;
const int min_correct=15;
char answers[num_question] ={

OK, so the program is working minus the play again loop. I even tried a goto statement for it but no luck. Basically what its doing is after the game runs its course it asks if you would like to play again? If you hit Y it starts over but if you it N it starts over. I want it to out put thank you for playing and close after user hits a button.

I neeed to Create a guessing game with numbers between 1 and 100. The loop will never exit until the condition is met. The user will continually guess and display:
Sorry Too Low
Sorry Too High
You Guessed Right
** YOU MUST USE THE BOOLEAN VARIABLE… when the boolean is true, the loop will exit **
This is what i got so far;
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
//Declaring Variables
int guess=50,x;

Code:
#include <conio.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX 100
}
[code].....
I am completely stuck when assigning values to and passing variables around. It seems that the problem occurs with fscanf function. I have also guessed that it might be passing and reading it as a character, even though I said it will be an integer, and tried atoi() with no luck. I troubleshooted the error as I tried to print the given values after I assign it. I am doing this for a friend I have recently been programming django, so I am completely out of the loop when it comes to C. where I am assigning converting passing in a wrong way?

The question for homework is Create an application that generates a random number in the range of 1 through 100 and asks the user to guess what the number is. If the user’s guess is higher than the random number, the program should display “Too high, try again.” If the user’s guess is lower than the random number, the program should display “Too low, try again.” If the user guesses the number, the application should congratulate the user and then generate a new random number so the game can start over"
I have no errors in my code, but when it compiles it and I type the number in, and hit calculate nothing happens at all. Im baffled. Here is my code.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;

the only problem I have is where to add
want to play again? y
OK, I am thinking of a number. Try to guess it.
Your guess?
...
want to play again? no
Goodbye
Code :
#include <stdio.h>
#define TARGET 23
#define LOW 1
#define HIGH 100
#define TRUE 1
#define FALSE 0
#define GUESS 6
int process( int guess, int target );

"Write a program to play a numbers guessing game. The user thinks of a number between 1 and 100 and your program asks questions to figure out what the number is (e.g., "Is the number you are thinking of less than 50?"). Your program should be able to identify the number after asking no more than seven questions. Hint: Use < and <= opeartors and the if-else construct."
What I've managed so far, but what I have seems to be lacking
Code:
#include "../../std_lib_facilities.h"
int half(int guess);
int going_up(int i);
int main()

when it comes to programming. I was trying to make a simple letter guessing game where the user has 6 chances to guess the letter V. The command prompt works fine until the user enters 'y' to play. It repeats my HIGH & LOW statements twice before letting me guess again. It's all a mess.

I am relatively new to C programming, and I am encountering numerous issues with this program that I cant seem to figure out how to fix.
First, when the user selects the arithmetic game, I keep on getting different incorrect answers from the arithgame function. For example, when I am presented with the question 3+2=_, sometimes the function claims the answer is the first number, 3, and other times the function gives me a multiplication answer, 6. This happens in both the addition and multiplication parts (ie. the multiplication answer will either be the first number or the addition answer).
Additionally, I cant figure out why my guessing game loops forever, rather than letting me guess until I get a correct answer.

I'm playing with a guessing game program as a personal exercise, but I'm missing a vital piece - the binary search-style code.
"Have the program initially guess 50, and have it ask the user whether the guess is high, low, or correct. If, say, the guess is low, have the next guess be halfway between 50 and 100, that is, 75. If that guess is high, let the next guess be halfway between 75 and 50, and so on."
(We're assuming that the user won't cheat.) I need the average, essentially. As in, (50 + 75) / 2 = 63.. but when I use this method of "guess = (high+low)/2, it just keeps giving me 50. I can't remember what operators I should use to increment the program's response based on the user's input. It's literally a binary search, that needs to go where those TODOs are. If low was chosen, it would have to start by being at least 51, to 100, so I'd have to set that, then find the average.
Code:
#include <stdio.h> Code: #include <ctype.h>
int main(int argc, const char * argv[]) {
int low;
int high;
int guess;
int response;
int toupper ( int );

Basically i need to make a number guessing game where user thinks of a numbver from 1 - 100 and the machine will try to guess it in the least number of times. Once it guesses the number it will also say how many tries it took to guess.
My code so far is
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
const int MAX = 100;
int main() {
char ch;
cout << "Think of an integer number between 0 and " << MAX<<endl;
cout << "Write it down on a piece of paper then hit a key to continue"<<endl<<endl;
cin.get(ch);

I'm making a guessing game program and i've encountered this error of stack around variable ' ' was corrupted. I tried to replace the variable into others but still the same. So is there anyway to solve it?I only know how to use stdio.h so preferably solution using it. Here is my program:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <iostream>
void main() {
char choice;
int num[4][4]={2,1,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,2};
int i,k,row,col,x,y;
int Array[4][4];
[Code] ....
The words in bold is the error part of the program...

So I made a simple letter guessing game a while ago and I want to make a simple edit. If the user does not press 'y' or 'n' and instead inputs an invalid letter, I want the printf's in the main function to loop until the user chooses to play or quit.
And I want the choices to show up again at the end of a game. Basically I want it to keep asking if the user wants to play until the user chooses to exit. Here's my code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
#define MAX_GUESSES 6
void Instructions ( ); //displays instructions, returns nothing
char Play ( ); //this functions plays one game, returns W if user wins & L if user runs out of tries
[Code] .....
I'm thinking of making a separate function (like Instructions and Play) ... But how would I link the user input back to the main function?

I'm currently creating a guessing game program where the user will be asked to guess the computer generated number. Once the program is finished, at the end the user will be asked if they want to play again. If the user types "Y or Y" the program will loop and when the user types "n or N" it will not loop. Check out my code below.
#include<iostream.h>
#include<stdio.h>
#include<dos.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<conio.h>
#define g gotoxy
void main(){
int a,l,b,guess,row,col,answer,num,clue=5;
[Code] ....
I can't loop this program.

I have tried to submit this topic before but i didn't submit my whole code and it was removed. So here it is. All I am trying to do is load form2 from form1 then back to form1 from form2 for a certain number of times the get out of the loop. I am new to C-Sharp and it seems as though I cant seem to figure out a way to do this.
Here is form1 and form2 code. I have commented out a few things I have tried.
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;

I am currently having problems creating a loop that will allow my user to choose to return to the beginning of the program or quit.
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
int j;
do {float a;
cout << "+----Welcome to Basic Operations----+
| Select Your Operation |
[Code] .....
I have not yet finished designing the interface for a couple of the operations, but right now i am hung up on trying to return to the beginning. I believe it is because the j was defined inside do and isn't carried out of the do statement for while.

I have started making a text adventure game.
if (Choice == 2) {
cout << "" << endl << "You follow the light to the end of the hallway, you find your self in a room" << endl
<< "with natural light coming from a hole in the ceiling." << endl << "" << endl << "You hear the door you just came through, slam behind you!" << endl << "" << endl
<< "There are three possible directions." << endl << "" << endl << "Do you:" << endl << "" << endl << "1) Go forward" << endl << "" << endl << "2) Go left" << endl
[Code] .....
Ignore the if (Choice == 2) at the beginning, that's linked to some previous code.
I want to make the player go back to the first bit of text but i'm not sure how to do this if they keep choosing to go back and forth from one location.
I first thought of doing it by just putting the text back in after they have chosen the option, but I can't do this infinite times.

Assume you want to use a loop to process an array of characters starting from the beginning of the array. You want the loop to stop when you read the null terminator character from the array. Fill in the loop test condition that will make this work correctly.
index = 0;
ch = array[index];
while ( _____________________________)
{
// process the character
index++;
ch = array[index];
}

If I have a positive double and cast it to an int. If it overflows, I know that most of the time, the value of the int becomes negative. If it overflows far enough, will it eventually become positive again?
Code:
double d = 34192384732194872394837249832743984738.;
int i = (int)d;
std::cout << i << std::endl;
Is there any value of d > INT_MAX that will cause i to be positive?

I know that returning to main() is not a good idea but how will I loop the program to go back to the position selection when the voter is done voting for the last position.
when I run the program it seems fine. getting the votes from President to PRO Position is fine. The problem is how will the next voter vote without losing the vote (tally) of the previous voter?
FLOW:
SELECT POSITION (a-e) ---> SELECT A CANDIDATE (a-c) ---> (this goes on until the position of PRO) ---> ( then go back to the POSITION SELECTION)
After every vote there is a case statement for which I can choose to vote for the next position, quit, or show results (and after showing the results it will go to the next position to vote)....

#include<string>
#include <conio.h>

I have to make a function that i'll later be able to use for a ceasar cypher. The letters should shift a user inputted number. This is what I have so far:
char shiftChar(char c, int s) {
char ch = c;
int shift = s;
int newC;
newC = int(ch) + shift;
return newC;
}
The problem with this, is that it doesn't loop back to the start of the alphabet once i get past z.

So I'm doing this problem where the user will input a number that will be factored until the number is 1, 2 people will play this game and they will take turns entering a number that the initial number(named gameN) will be divided by until it is 1. Whoever get it to 1 wins. My problem is I'm not really sure how to do this, I'm pretty new to programming so besides some if statements and a loop, the problem shouldn't require too much to write. Some rules for the game are, the number entered to factor the gameN cant be less than 2, and has to divide evenly into gameN, which I have signifies with modulus. Here is where I'm at so far.
#include <stdio.h>
int main(){
int gameN;
int p1f;
int p2f;
printf("What number should the game be played with?");
scanf("%d", &gameN);

So I am working on making a game. The first thing I did was make a window class. This correctly makes the window and displays it.
Now, I run my game loop and it just freezes the window and shows the Application has stopped working message box. I believe this is because the Window is not actually being updated.
My game loop however, looks like this.
bool run = true;
while(run) {
Window::Render();
if (Window::IsCloseRequested())
