    [Jumping into C++] What is Chapter 9, Exercise 3 asking of me?

    The problem:
    Write a program that solves the guessing game from part 1. How many guesses does your program
    need?
    I looked through a bunch of the previous chapters (even Chapter 1), but nothing came up about a guessing game. Was this a mistake, or did I miss something?

    Refer to the previous problem, i.e., just a line above.

"Finding the smallest program that demonstrates the error" is a powerful debugging tool.

    I played the game: "Electronic Master Mind" when I was a kid. So, programming this game was a breeze! Essentially, it shows how effective & efficient a Binary Search routine is.
