I am having a problem with my code for an assignment. I am to take the a dice and roll it 100 times, output the random results, and then ask the user if they would like to roll it again. My only problem is the second and subsequent times the die is rolled, it is no longer random. I have tried placing the rand operator in different places in the code but still am lost. here is my code. Any help would be apreciated.
#include "stdafx.h"
#include "iomanip"
#include "iostream"
#include "ctime"
using namespace std;
int dieRoll ();
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
//Intialize Variables
int sideOne=0;
int sideTwo=0;
int sideThree=0;
int sideFour=0;
int sideFive=0;
int sideSix=0;
int counter=0;
int dieUp=0;
char die=' ';
//Rand operator
srand(static_cast<int>(time(0)));
//User input
cout<<"Do you want to roll the die (y or n):";
cin>>die;
die = toupper(die);
while (die !='N')
{
//Dice calculations
while(counter<100)
{dieUp=dieRoll();
counter=counter+1;
switch (dieUp)
{
case 1: sideOne=sideOne+1;
break;
case 2: sideTwo=sideTwo+1;
break;
case 3: sideThree=sideThree+1;
break;
case 4: sideFour=sideFour+1;
break;
case 5: sideFive=sideFive+1;
break;
case 6: sideSix=sideSix+1;
break;
}
}
//Output
cout<<"The number one was rolled "<<sideOne<<" times"<<endl;
cout<<"The number two was rolled "<<sideTwo<<" times"<<endl;
cout<<"The number three was rolled "<<sideThree<<" times"<<endl;
cout<<"The number four was rolled "<<sideFour<<" times"<<endl;
cout<<"The number five was rolled "<<sideFive<<" times"<<endl;
cout<<"The number six was rolled "<<sideSix<<" times"<<endl;
cout<<endl<<endl;
cout<<"Do you want to roll the die (y or n):";
cin>>die;
die = toupper(die);
}
system ("pause");
return 0;
}
//dieRoll Function
int dieRoll()
{
int dieNum=0;
dieNum= 1+rand()%(6-1+1);
return dieNum;
}
