while ( answer == 'y' )
You can use the function's return value for that.Anyway I have the line Would you like to play again? (y or n) at the end of the function but i don't know how to loop it back to play again if the player enters y.
Code:#include <stdio.h> #include <ctype.h> /* for tolower() */ int game(void) { /* play the game */ printf("Would you like to play again? (y/n) "); return tolower(getchar()) == 'y'; } int main(void) { while(game()); return 0; }
