program is freaking out on me
alright i made just a simple little math game using a lot of the i've learned from the first 3 chapters of "Beginning C++ Game Programming" and it works fine the first time through the loop but when i tell it that i want to play again it just keeps going through the loop and doesnt stop. dunno what is wrong with it...i've tried adding cin.ignore(); after all my inputs but it didn't work so wondering if u guys can figure it out.
Code:
// Simple Math Game
#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
//seed out random numbers
srand(time(0));
int points = 0;
int guess;
int again = 'y';
cout << "\t\t**********Welcome To The Math Quiz Game**********";
cout << "\n\nHow to play: A random problem will be generated and the player has";
cout << "\nto guess the correct answer to earn points. The player will get one";
cout << "\npoint for each answer he/she gets right and will lose one point for";
cout << "\neach answer he/she gets wrong. If the player scores 10 points he/she";
cout << "\nwins the game.";
while (again != 'n')
{
int num1 = (rand() % 100) + 1;
int num2 = (rand() % 100) + 1;
cout << "\n\nThe problem is: " << num1 << " + " << num2 << " ";
int answer = num1 + num2;
cin >> guess;
if (guess == answer)
{
cout << "Correct! you get 1 point";
points += 1;
}
else
{
cout << "Wrong! you lose 1 point";
points -= 1;
}
cout << "\n\nyou have " << points << " points";
cout << "\n\nwould you like to play again (y/n) ";
cin >> again;
}
cout << "Bye";
cin.ignore();
cin.get();
}
ps: didn't add the final part to check if points == 10 yet
