Round Counter in (Game in C++)

[idsuni]

So i just startet with programming and I am trying to make a minigame. One part of the minigame is a round counter. 1 Round = 2 turns (Player 1, Player 2)

How can i write a function that gets bigger every time it is Player1's turn?

So
Round1:
-Player1
-Player2

Round2: (Game sees its Player1's turn and adds 1 to Roundnumber)
...

I tried to to it with "if or else" functions which failed and couldnt find the right "loop" for that problem.

Thanks in advance.

something like:

int roundct = 0;
while(waiting for a winner or something)
{
    p1.turn();
    p2.turn();
    roundct++; //round counter.  
}
do something with roundct;  //you can also use it in the loop, with a condition, 
//or the while's condition even eg end if roundct > 100
