I’m going to be honest, I didn’t even play it because I’m so bad at math! Overall though, this was a brilliant intro to C++ and I feel like I’ve genuinely achieved something.

My full game is 10 levels so it starts getting a lot harder at around lvl 6-7 and up.
I have also included 3 lifes and some monologue from Golum that got The Ring stuck in a box :stuck_out_tongue: . (I was to lazy to change most of the monologue so it is pretty standard)

Here is my final TripleX Game using the rand() function (Which I think is working and giving me a good mental challenge), and it works pretty well!
This has been an informative and helpful way of introducing beginners to C++ Programming, but this course is also a great refresher for people who want to touch-up their programming skills.
Thanks for keeping this course up to date and full of challenge!

#include <iostream>

void PrintIntroduction(int Difficulty) {

Hey everyone! This is what I had at the end of this section, pretty much followed the example but modified a couple of things:

#include <iostream>

void PrintIntroduction(int Difficulty)

I enjoyed this lesson very much. I made my version of Triple X a little differently. In my game, instead of looping for a set amount of rounds, my game continues to play until the player quits. It goes for an infinite amount of rounds! If the player enters something incorrectly, it will send the player back to level 1.

}

Level 4 was hard. Level 5 was where my brain said ‘no more!!!’. I don’t like this type of thinking!

====

I put some extra work in to make it so the full intro only plays upon launch and after that an abbreviated ‘next password’ bit of text gets spit out instead.

void PrintNextPassword(int Difficulty, bool playIntro)
{
    if (playIntro = false)
    {
        std::cout << "\n\n"; 
        std::cout << "Slug: \"Here's the next password\n";
        std::cout << "Slug: \"It\'s a difficulty level " << Difficulty  << " password...\"\n";
        std::cout << "\n\n";  
    }
}

(it’s more involved than the snippet above, but you get the idea)

Also added some spacing to fit the vertical ‘resolution’ of my game to try and make it look like the screen is clearing after each attempt.
