easy comparison question

i am making a basic fruit machine program and i require this kinda thing

Code:

---

if(reel1 == reel2 == reel3)
{
    cout << "you win!" << '\n';
}

---

but this doesnt work.
can someone help me out . Also why doesnt the above work?

Thanks.

it is comparing the first part and seeing that as true when evaluating the second part...

use:

Code:

---

(reel1 == reel2) && (reel2 == reel3)

---

thanks for that korn1699. I can sod off to bed now!
