can you help me where is my mistake ?? please this is my homework last day:(

Code:

---

#include<stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>


int main(void){
int number1;
int numberofestimates;






number1= (1 + rand()%1000);
printf( "Enter your estimate, -1 to end: " );
scanf( "%d", &numberofestimates );




while (numberofestimates!=-1)
{
printf("I have a number between 1 and 1000.Can you guess my number?Please type your first guess.Enter your estimate, -1 to end");
fflush(stdout);
scanf("%d\n",&numberofestimates);




if (number1<numberofestimates)
{
printf("Too high. Try again.");
fflush(stdout);
scanf("%d\n",&numberofestimates);
break;
}
if (number1>numberofestimates)
{
printf("too low.try again.");
fflush(stdout);
scanf("%d\n",&numberofestimates);


break;
}
if (number1==numberofestimates)
{
printf("Excellent! You guessed the number! ");
printf("do you want to play again please write a new guess ");
break;
}
}
return 0;
}

Your first error would be posting this C program in the C++ forum.

Next fflush() is not designed to be used with input streams.

Lastly asking specific questions would be advised.

Ask yourself when do you wish to break out of the while loop?
Now ask yourself why do you have 3 breaks in your code?

im sorry to post wrong
i can't speak english very well
thanks

It would be helpful if you provided more information, such as the exact problem you're having.
(How To Ask Questions The Smart Way)

1. "numberofestimates" is a misleading variable name - "guess" might be better.
2. Get rid of the "\n" in the "scanf()" strings.
3. Get rid of the "break" statements for the "less-than" and "greater-than" conditions - you want to keep looping in that instance, not break out of it.
4 Your logic needs re-structuring. Draw it out on paper first. For instance, you ask for a guess, then enter the loop, then ask for a guess again. You print the main message (which should be above the loop, not in the loop) each time the loop runs, and ask for a guess twice with each iteration.
