ok then so how would i make it cout the count and then keep giong until all six numbers match?

I'm creating a lottery game that solicits 6 numbers from the user between 1-59 and then generates 6 numbers until they all match. When I compile and run my code it takes the user input fine. However...

well I struggle with c++ let alone know anything about c haha i stick to this forum....but any suggestions as to why the code doesn't output anything?

My teacher must have confused me then. I originally had the & in there and he said strings are pass by reference so i didn't need them in there and thats why they were causing the link error. I...

I was told that passing strings pass by reference and not value.

and if i change the header to


void poker (string &card1, string &card2, string &card3, string &card4, string &card5)

Ok fixed everything...code compiles and builds. Only problem is it does not display the cards. It just asks user to press D to deal and then says thanks for playing.



#include "stdafx.h"...

Ok so i made some major modifciations here IMO. I changed it from void to int. As well as I have to use strings to display the card. Also i came up with the process to prevent drawing another...

i thought you set it to void though BECAUSE it doesn't return a value?

Hello again everyone I'm designing a code now that just deals a five card poker hand when the user presses D. I have to use pass by reference for this which I have pretty much no understanding of....

How would you write a program to pick a math problem at random? i.e. add,divide,subtract,multiply? I guess using either subroutines or not but it would most likely be in a switch statment where the...

I'm kind of teaching myself and learning from you all but i see what you're saying about the error that makes sense once its explained haha but to a noob just reading that it looks like swahili

If i removed the void from inside main I get a compile error:


Lab 3.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "void __cdecl get_menu(void)" (?get_menu@@YAXXZ)...

So here's what I tried...which is basically what you both had said:



void get_menu();

int main()
{
void get_menu();

Thanks for the help guys....I apologize for the incorrect terminology...i'm still learning the language as you can see.

I am now learning to create functions. I have read the tutorial on this site and several others. I have not been able to find any guidance though as to how to creat a function that returns a menu....

ok so i took the advice your advice and 1) changed the num gen and 2) went with the multiplication idea...no problems really except for the fact that I added a portion that tells you what the...

thats just how he recommended writing it and said he preferred it that way

It HAS been pointed out to me before but as I wrote in the reply that is how my professor wants it coded. Its not my option but thank you for pointing that out again.

i apprecieate the quick response but i'm looking for some understanding of the language not just a quick answer but thank you agian for the help

How can you force the a program to only pick numbers that are divisible to an integer?


for (pro = 0; pro < numpro; pro++) //keeps a count until number of problems desired is reached
{...

Originally I wasn't using that buy monday my professor said he reccomends writing it out that way because the first one assigns a rand value to num1 and then the second line keeps it below 100.

I...

I appreciate the help...i was hoping someone could explain things a bit to me though as well sorry if i was vague about that.

Why does

doesn't?

Hey everyone. So i'm relatively new to all of this and have no experience. If it matters i'm using visual studio 2005.
