Thread: need some help to upgrade a mini game in C

HI!

Well, since I started learning C the other day, I thought it was pretty cool... I went through a few things, and just learned about loops. (*EDIT: Forgot to mention the language... it's C )

So, this post is to ask if you cuold shed me some light, without giving me the code right away, you see my little game below; I want to upgrade it.

If you can give me a well detailed picture, I would appreciate since I need to learn, so neither a direct asnwer or formula would do.

I want:

1) The program to count the number of times the user tried a number before finding the random one.
printf("Contrats, after % number of times, you found it", variable)

2) I want the program to ask if the user want to try another game, using booleen (always true, false = endgame)

and 3rd) I want it to be a 2 players game, someone enters the "random" number, and the other person tries to find it... BUT! We MUST be able to choose wether its gonna be a 1 player (random generated number) or 2 players.


I need some help from you coders :shock2:

Code:

/*

Less or More Mini-game-------------

*/


#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>


int main ( int argc, char** argv )
{
    int guessNumber = 0, inputNumber = 0;
    const int MAX = 100, MIN = 1;

    // Generating the random number

    srand(time(NULL));
    guessNumber = (rand() % (MAX - MIN + 1)) + MIN;

    /* Loop of the program. It repeats until the user finds the guessNumber
    */

    do
    {
        // It asks for the number
        printf("What is the number ? ");
        scanf("%d", &inputNumber);

        // We compare the input number with the guessNumber

        if (guessNumber > inputNumber)
            printf("It's more !\n\n");
        else if (guessNumber < inputNumber)
            printf("It's less !\n\n");
        else
            printf ("Congrats, you found the mysterious number !!!\n\n");
    } while (inputNumber != guessNumber);

}

So before you generate the random number, ask the player if it should be a two person game, or a one person game.

I'd like to know some more

How do I add the count thing ?
