Need help on collecting the number of right answers in math quiz program

[DangerousPirate]

Hi, I am working on an RPG math game that collects the number of corrected answers then convert them in to Experience Points for the leveling system. I have just complete with the math problem generator; however, when running the program I cannot get it the correct answer counter to keep track of the number of answers that are correct. It will only display a constant value of "1" and would not change even if the first answer is incorrect.

Here is the function that's suppose to count the number of correct answers
Note: The function runs in for loop in int main();

int answerCorrectorPlayer1(int userInput[][2], int answerAdd[]){
    int num_of_correct_answers = 0, valueHolder = 0;
    
    //Cycles to all of the answers for correction
    for (int answerChecker = 0; answerChecker <= 5; answerChecker++){
            
             userInput[answerChecker][1];
             
             //answerAdd is the variable that holds the correct answer
             //Corrects and counts the amount of answers correct
             if (userInput[answerChecker][1] == answerAdd[answerChecker]){ 
             
                 num_of_correct_answers = valueHolder + 1;
             }
             // If the an answer is wrong no point is added
             else if (userInput[answerChecker][1] != answerAdd[answerChecker]){
                 num_of_correct_answers = valueHolder + 0;
             }
            
    }
    
return num_of_correct_answers;}

And here is the entirety of the code:

The problem is in your for loop.

Notice that after each answer the player answers, the correct answers are counted.

I'm assuming you want the player to answer all five questions then display the number correct.

So, have the problems in the for loop, and have the display after the for loop.

for(problems)
{
   generate problem
   have player answer it
}
calculate number of answers correct
display desired information (including numbers of information

Also, taking a look at your other for loops, it looks like you have the first two for loops reversed.

I'm assuming you want each player to go in each round, and then the next round is executed for the total number of rounds. Right now you have it so that each player goes one at a time for all of his rounds... try this instead:

for( rounds )
{
   display round #
   for( players )
   {
    display player's name
      for( problems )
      {generate problem; have player answer problem;}
    display player's score
   }
}

I figured out the issue it had to do with the "answerAdd[]" not storing the correct value from the random number generator, thanks for the help.
