Thread: help me please

hello,
I'm a beginner in c programming and i want you to help me to complete my little console game which is a famous game " guess the number" here is my code :

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <conio.h>
void  main()
 {

    int N,x,essai,T,i,;


    printf(" veillez choisir entre le mode machine (1) ou le mode joueur  tapez 1 pour le mode machine \n ");

    scanf("%d:\n",&T);




   randomize(); // initialisation de rand
if(T==1)
{
   N = rand()%100;
   printf(" joueur : devinez le nombre N compris entre 0 et 100\n ");
}
else
{
printf(" joueur 1 : veillez saisir un nombre compris entre 0 et 100\n");

scanf("%d:\n",&N);

printf(" joueur 2: devinez le nombre N compris entre 0 et 100\n ");

clrscr();
}
   essai=1;





   scanf("%d:\n",&x);

           while(x!=N && essai<=10)

             {
                 if(x<N)
                 {
                     printf("x<N:\n");
                 }
                 else
                 {
                  printf("x>N:\n");
                 }

                     printf("Nouvel essai joueur\n");

                scanf("%d:\n",&x);

                      essai++ ;

             }

          if(essai<=10)
          {
             printf("\n bravo, vous avez pu deviner le nombre en %d essais",essai);
          }
       else
       {
             printf("dsl , vous avez échoué à l'épreuve, bonne chance la prochaine fois");
       }




   getch();
 }

now i want to add a score sorting depending on the number of " essai ", with just using a tables .
so if any one can help me i will be Grateful.
Thank you in advance.

Welcome to the forum, khorkoch!

I like French, but never studied it, so you're pretty much out of luck if you're too busy to translate it. I'm not going to work through Google's translator for you.

Guess the Number is a binary search game, (if you're a bit clever), as we played it as kids. Score sorting? What's the problem? Put the scores into an array and sort them, yes?

first of all , I'm really a beginner in c programming this why i asked for help so please don't tell me " as we played it as kids. Score sorting? What's the problem? Put the scores into an array and sort them, yes? " , concerning french it's does not matter , because it is just a comment but here is the code completely in English:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <conio.h>
void  main()
 {

    int N,x,guessesT,i,top[10],D,j;


    printf(" please choose between machine mode (1) and player mode tape 1 for machine mode  \n ");

    scanf("%d:\n",&T);




   randomize(); // rand initialization
if(T==1)
{
   N = rand()%100;
   printf(" player : guess the number between 0 and 100 \n ");
}
else
{
printf(" player 1 : insert a number between 0 and 100 \n");

scanf("%d:\n",&N);

printf(" player 2: guess the number between 0 and 100\n ");

clrscr();
}
   essai=1;





   scanf("%d:\n",&x);

           while(x!=N && guesses<=10)

             {
                 if(x<N)
                 {
                     printf("x<N:\n");
                 }
                 else
                 {
                  printf("x>N:\n");
                 }

                     printf("guess again \n");

                scanf("%d:\n",&x);

                      essai++ ;

             }

          if(essai<=10)
          {
             printf("\n congratulation you succeeded in  %d guesses ",guesses);
          }
       else
       {
             printf("sorry, game over ");
       }




   getch();
 }

Note essai is declared as guessesT.Translation missed some spots :P

Don't be upset. This was a game we sometimes played as kids to decide things like which team would bat first in baseball, etc.

Scores based on the number of guesses? Something like:

Code:

int scores[NumOfPlayers]={0};

if(guesses < 5)
   score = 25;
else if(guesses < 10)
   score = 20;
else if(guesses < 15)
   score = 15;
else if(guesses < 20)
   score = 10;
else if(guesses < 30)
   score = 5;

scores[PlayersNumber]=score;

or

scores[PlayersNumber]+=score; //keep a summation of scores for each player.

Something like that? You could make an array and use score[i]

Your main function should be declared as int main() or int main(void), and it should return 0 at the end to indicate successful execution.

Where is the randomize function defined? It's not a standard C function.

thank you adak but it did not work .I want to do a descending sorting of guesses using table ( "for" loop) without "score".
thank you christop for your notice but it work normally and very well using borland c++.

OK, you have a top[] array for the games with the fewest number of guesses. Do you want to include the player's name? A struct might be too difficult atm, but a "parallel" char array of names[10][length of names] to match with int top[], would be OK.


This is Insertion sort, and will sort either ascending or descending, depending on the comparison you have in the code:

Code:

//call to the function:
insertionSort(top, 0, n);

void insertionSort(int A[], int lo, int hi) {
  int i, j, val; 
  j=hi;   
  for(i=lo+1;i<hi;i++) {  
    val = A[i];
    j = i-1;
    while(A[j] < val) {
      A[j + 1] = A[j];
      --j;
      if(j<0) break;
    }   
    A[j+1] = val;
  }
}

If you decide to go with the players name also, this will need to be changed, but we can help you with that.

thank you very much adak for your helping and your effort .but I didn't understand your code , so if you can integrate it to mine so that it will be coherent .no problem if we go with the players name also.

I'll be back in a few hours. Try to add the function I posted, into your program. Outside of main().

Post this prototype, below the include files in the program, and above the first function (which should be main()):

Code:

void insertionSort(int A[], int lo, int hi);  //function prototype for insertionSort()

Then in your program, when the player has finished, and you have their number of guesses, we'll check their number to see if it's a one of the top 10, and if it is, we'll write it into the top scores data file.

Back in a few hours, see what you can do with it.
