    Arrow Dev C++ Problem!

    i'm having problems with dev c++, it wont let me assign a statement to a variable:

    Code:
    nDCard1=rand()%13+1
    also, i'm trying to learn how to generate a random number, here's what i want to do, i want it to generate a number betaween 1 to 13!

    here's the code i'm trying to do, could u pls see if it's correct? i havent tested it cuz it wont compile due to the error above

    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #include <time.h>
    
    int main(void)
    {
          int nMoney = 100, nBet, nDCard1 = 0, nDCard2 = 0, nDCArd3 = 0;
          int nSuit,nDCard4 = 0, nDCard5 = 0;
          char dev_c;
          
          srand(time(NULL));
    
          printf ("Your money: $ %d\n", nMoney);
          printf ("Your bet: $ ");
          scanf ("%d\n", &nBet);
    
          printf (">>> Here are the dealer's cards <<<");
          
          nDCard1=rand()%13+1
          
          switch (nDCard1)
               { case 1: printf ("Ace of");
                 case 2: printf ("Two of");
                 case 3: printf ("Three of");
                 case 4: printf ("Four of");
                 case 5: printf ("Five of");
                 case 6: printf ("Six of");
                 case 7: printf ("Seven of");
                 case 8: printf ("Eight of");
                 case 9: printf ("Nine of");
                 case 10: printf ("Ten of");
                 case 11: printf ("Jack of");
                 case 12: printf ("Queen of");
                 case 13: printf ("King of");
               }
               return(0);
    
    scanf ("%c", dev_c);
    scanf ("%c", dev_c);
    }

    Try adding a ; to the end of your statement. Also, there is a FAQ on random numbers.

    Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
