Need Help on random numbers and adding them and displaying statement
Please support our C++ advertiser: Programming Forums - DaniWeb Sister Site
Thread Solved |
I am trying to write a program that can be used to display two random numbers to be added together. This program should wait for the answer to be input. If the answer is correct display a statement that says that is correct. If the answer is wrong it needs to display that is incorrect then display the correct answer.
Thanks.
Here is what I have so far. I can not figure how the display part to display the statements and the correct answer if need be. Go easy I am new at this and it is my first attempt at programming
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iomanip>
#include <ctime>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
srand((unsigned)time(0));
int random_integer1;
int random_integer2;
double answer;
random_integer1 = (rand()%500)+1;
random_integer2 = (rand()%500)+1;
cout << setw (6) << random_integer1 << endl;
cout << "+ ";
cout << setw (4) << random_integer2 << endl;
cout << "------";
cout << "\n";
cin >> answer;
cout << "\n";
return 0;
}
Thanks.

an int plus an int will always be an int. Have the program do the calculation and store it in an int called temp. Then get user input in an int called answer. Then compare the two numbers using the equals operator within an if conditional with the body of the loop having an output statement indicating the answer was correct.

replace these "
cin >> answer;
cout << "\n";
return 0;
} "
with that code. You will need to return 0 and close the brace of course :p
cin >> answer;
cout << "\n";
return 0;
} "
with that code. You will need to return 0 and close the brace of course :p

Here is my new code
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iomanip>
#include <ctime>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
srand((unsigned)time(0));
int random_integer1;
int random_integer2;
int input;
const int ANSWER = random_integer1 + random_integer2;
random_integer1 = (rand()%500)+1;
random_integer2 = (rand()%500)+1;
cout << setw (6) << random_integer1 << endl;
cout << "+ ";
cout << setw (4) << random_integer2 << endl;
cout << "------";
cout << "\n";
cin >> input; // get input
while(input != ANSWER);
return 0;
}
I am getting a debug error
ran time check failure #3 the variable 'random_integer1' is being used without being initalized
another error replacing random_integer1 with random_integer2
I can ignore these erros and it will generate the random numbers and allow an answer to be put in but that is it.
Thanks.
