yes i am aware that alot of it does not do anything, but i just want to get theis random color thing working. it was working fin with the random colors before, but i thought my teacher might be annoyed while grading it. so i wanted to make an option to turn it off... that is where the problems began look at the end of the random color method, and the options method...

first of all, type in help on menu to test the random color. it would switch every time before i tried to add in disable, but now it is just gray, even though in options it says it disabled random color is off. and in options, when i try to change anything... it really doesnt so anything, and it just prints out all of the possible cout statemtnes in the three if statements

please help!!!

thanks!

thanks!

Is it part of the homework that it generate random colors?

If not, remove it. All you end up doing is making the teacher's job harder trying to wade through excess.

[ramus313]

haha well he likes original ideas, so i would like to keep it if possible

the random colors work fine, but when i try to add in a way to disable them in options, then it gives me issues

[ramus313]

is it possible to do the have the disable random color option in the settings?

[sandeepdas]

As far as i ses this condition will always be true ..


if(rand_color_disable = 1){//boolean 1 for true... couly use char or something but booleans just to match rubric
SetColor(GRAY);
}



So, it will be better if change it to if(rand_color_disable==1) then i guess your code will work as expected.
