Slot Machine

[Oscariuz]

Hi guys im trying to make a program that will work as " Slot Machine " and im stuck in one part that i can not resolve. Im trying to verify predetermined char in random array so i can know if some of char appear three times or more. I want to do that so i can deteremined how much player is going to win. It depends on how many lines of the same char do player get. Im new to programming so i would appreciate any help that i can get. Here my code that i need help with.

#include <iostream>
#include <ctime>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <cmath>
#include <string>
#include <algorithm>

using namespace std;



 


int main ()
{
    cout << endl ;
    cout << "                Welcome to money making '' SLOT MACHINE '' game " << endl;
    cout << endl;
    
    int age;
    cout << " Please verify your age: ";
    cin >> age;
    cout << endl;
    
    if (age>17) 
    {
               cout << "You are eligible to play" << endl;
               }
    else {
               cout << "You are not eligible to play" << endl;
         
               system("PAUSE");
               return 0;
         }
    cout << endl ;
    
    int account; 
    cout << "How much money would you like to withdraw from your account: " << endl;
    cout << endl;
    cin >> account;
    cout << endl;
    
    cout << account << " has been withdrawed from your account" << endl; 
    cout << endl;
    
     bool running=true; 
    
    while (running == true) 
    {
    int bet=50||100||200; 
    
    cout << "Now you are welcome to set your bet" << endl;
    cout << endl;
    
    cout << "You can bet a 50,100 or 200 " << endl;
    cout << endl;
    
    cout << "Choose how much you would like to bet: 50, 100 or 200" << endl;
    cout << endl;
    
    cin >> bet; 
    cout << endl;
    
    if (bet == 50) 
    {
             cout << "You have bet 50" << endl;
             }
    else if(bet == 100)
    {
         cout << "You have bet 100" << endl;
         }
    else if(bet == 200)
    {
         cout << "You have bet 200" << endl;
         }
    
    cout << endl;
    account-=bet; 
    cout << "You have " << account << " left to play for" << endl;  
    
    srand ( time(0));

    char sign[3]; 
    sign [0] = '$';
    sign [1] = 'X';
    sign [2] = 'O';
    
    for (char i = 0; i < 3; ++i) 
    { 
        char r  = rand() % 3;
        char s  = rand() % 3;
        char d  = rand() % 3;
        
        cout << "___ ___ ___\n";
        cout << " "<<sign[r]<< " | " << sign[s] << " | " << sign[d] << " | " << "\n"; 
        cout << "___|___|___|\n";
        
       
        
       
        
        }
        
        
        
        
        
        
        
        
    system("PAUSE");

}
}

I'm not sure I understand your question. Are you asking the probability of certain patterns of characters occurring? Or, are you asking how to compare the selected characters?

[Oscariuz]

Yeah im asking how to compare selected characters

[mzimmers]

if (r == s && s == d) {
//winner!
}

You may want to put in another test to see if r == '$' (I assume that's what you want to pay on).
