stupid, stupid question I know this is more than likely very stupid, but my teacher and I cannot seem to get the <cctype> header file to work properly so I can figure out a way to handle the error if someone presses a key on the keyboard since if they do when they are prompted, the program gets all screwed up.
Code:#include <iostream.h> #include <iomanip.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <conio.h> #include <cctype.h> #include <windows.h> #include <time.h> #include <string.h> void Start(); //sets Start() as a function to be called later in the program for a //specific piece of code to be called upon void GetResults(); //set GetResults() as a function to be called later in the program for a //specific piece of code to be called upon int j, guess, i, max, Status, perfect; //declares these as interger variables to be used throughout //the program char c, ch, string[100]; //declares c to be used as a char variable throughout the program int main() { //This will set the Title bar text Status = SetConsoleTitle("Jackpot -:::- Can You Guess The Number? "); HANDLE hOut; //declared hOut as being a type of variable used to be called later //in the program hOut = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE); //This will set the background color and the text color SetConsoleTextAttribute(hOut, FOREGROUND_RED | BACKGROUND_GREEN| BACKGROUND_INTENSITY| FOREGROUND_INTENSITY); //This part of the Program will display information about the program to the user before //they begin the game cout << setw(45) << "-_- Jackpot -_-" << setw(35) << " \n"; cout << "The object of the game is to guess the number according to the level you pick.\n"; cout << "You will have 10 guesses to to get this number.\n"; cout << "The game will tell you if you are guessing either too high or too low, and in \n"; cout << "the end will tell you the correct number if you don't guess it.\n\n"; Start(); //calls the Start() function return 0; //will return control to the computer after the Start() function is executed } void Start() //begins the function Start() which was declared earlier in the program { //Asks the user to select their level of difficulty cout << "Select your level of difficulty:\n"; cout << "1 : Novice (0-100)\n"; cout << "2 : Intermediate (0-500)\n"; cout << "3 : Expert (0-1000)\n\n"; cout << "If you would like to quit press another key and then press enter\n"; cin >> c; //Accepts user input and declares it to the c variable cout << "\n"; switch (c) { case '1' : max = 100; // the random number will be between 0 and 100 break; case '2' : max = 500; // the random number will be between 0 and 500 break; case '3' : max = 1000;// the random number will be between 0 and 1000 break; default : exit(0); // exits the program if the user enters something other than 1-3 break; } guess = 10; // number of guesses the player has srand( (unsigned)time( NULL ) ); j = rand() % max; // lets the computer create a random number then turns // that number into a whole number GetResults(); } void GetResults() { { if (guess <= 0) //this will occur if the player runs out of life { cout << "How did you not know that the number was " << j << "?\n"; cout << "You can either play again or quit now by entering a letter and enter.\n\n"; Start(); //Repeats the Start() function if this if statement is true } cout << "Enter your guess: " << j << endl; //Prompts the user for their guess cin >> i; // accepts the user's guess if (guess == 10 && i == j)//displays this if they only used one guess to get the //correct number { cout << "Wow, you are a pure genius, amazing, one try!
