Hello, i am back again. I need help. I got a problem. For my part 2 game where the program would print a random number and the user are to tell the computer that if the number is too high or too low or the random number is correct. But, if the user said number is too low, but still the random number would still give a lower number . Is there any techniques to code such that if the user said the number is low, the computer would random a higher number.

Cprogramming.com FAQ > Generate random numbers?
For getting a random number between two limits.

The idea being, if the user inputs 'H', then the number you guessed is your new upper bound.

Also, consider this as a way of improving your code structure (so it's not all in main).

Code:

---

if (choice == 1) {
  playHumanGuesses();
} else
if (choice == 2) {
  playComputerGuesses();
}

Move appropriate blocks of code into new functions.

Per Salem's tip here is some class based code using your original code:

Code:

I tested it a few times, but might still be some things I missed.

Why is it that no one complained about void main?
SourceForge.net: Void main - cpwiki

I changed it to int on rewrite.
