Number Guessing Game Help

Anmol444 (638)

Below is my code for a number guessing game. The problem seems to be that if you guess the number on the first try it doesn't display "Phenomenal! You got it on your first try!" but instead skips to the next level. It wont generate a random number in this code but the number, the computer is always 'thinking of' is 1 so u can test it. Ty and please help

You can simplify the following code :

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
 
if(guess==number)
		{
                if (tries == 1)
                {
                cout <<" "<<endl;
                cout <<"Phenomenal! You got it on your first try!"<<endl;
                cout <<" "<<endl;
            }


to
if(guess == number && tries == 1) cout << "Phenomenal!"

and I can't tell without pluggin this into my ide but you should check the entry once for victory before you enter the while loop.

like

1
2
3
4
5
6
7
8
9
10
11
12
 
cin >> number;
if(number == j)
{
 ++tries;
 cout << "Phenominal! You got it on the first try!";
}
else
do
{
//code here
//include counter 
} while(number != j && count <= 10)
