Question

Write a program that lets the user guess the coin's head or tail. The program randomly generates an integer 0 or 1, which represents the head or the tail. The program prompts the user to enter a guess and reports whether the guess is correct or incorrect. include step by step commentary.

Answer 1

Answer:

#include <iostream>

#include <stdlib.h>

#include <time.h>

using namespace std;

int main()

{

   srand (time(NULL));  //initialize random seed

   int guess;

    int number = rand() % 2;  //generate random number 0 or 1

    cout<<"Enter the guess (0 or 1): ";

    cin>>guess;     //store in guess

    if(number == guess){     //check if number equal to guess

       cout<<"Guess is correct."<<endl;   //if true print correct message.

    }else{

        cout<<"Guess is incorrect."<<endl;  //otherwise print correct message.

    }

    return 0;

}

Explanation:

first include the three library iostream for input/output, stdlib,h for using the rand() function and time for using the time() function.

create the main function and initialize the random number generation seed, then generate the random number using the function rand() from 0 to 1.

after that, take input from user and then with the help of conditional statement if else check if random number is equal to guess number or not and print the appropriate message.
