Something is wrong with my guessing game!

[Queatrix]

If you compile this simple program you will se what I am trying to get it to do. It all works fine other than the fact that if you get it win on you'r last try, it will say that you lost even though when it displays the numbers out, you see that you did not loose, you won. Although the computer doesn't see it that way. I don't know why it is doing this.

Thanks, August
(Script I was talking about is below.)

int main(){
double lev_dif, lev_left, lev_play, lev_guess, lev_rand, goto_starter;
srand(time(NULL)); // Set a seed for random-num. generation.
souldnt_go:
for(goto_starter=(99);goto_starter>50;){

Computers don't like to let humans win at anything.

You are going to have to figure out a better way to organize your code. Look through some of the posts on the forum, and look at which programs are easy to read, and which ones are very difficult to read. Then, emulate the good ones.

I agree, and you need to rethink the goto's as well, you must be coming from a BASIC background. While there are some legitimate uses of goto in c++, it should be avoided.

I compiled it and it worked fine for me, even when I guessed right on the last guess. So not sure what's happening with yours.
