Thread: Random numbers problem

I'm trying to create a random number between 1 and 100, but it keeps coming up with the number 42. I've tried everything to try and fix it but nothing will work.

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <stdlib.h>


using namespace std;

int number;
int guess;
int correct = 0;

int main()

{
	number = (rand()%100) + 1;

	do
	{
		cout << "Enter your guess at the number";
		cin >> guess;

		if (guess < number)
		{
			cout << "Your guess is to low" << endl;
		};

		if (guess > number)
		{
			cout << "Your guess is to high" << endl;
		};

		if (guess == number || guess == 0)
		{
			cout << endl << "Well done your guess is correct!";
			correct ++;
		};

	}while (correct < 1);

		return 0;
		
}

I have tried various "#include" statements that I have found in examples, but still none of them work.

Anyone help?

Thanks
