Here’s output showing my win/loss messages…
I started working on this while waiting for a plane, and the whole frustrating experience of having flights delayed and sitting for hours in cramped seats inspired the story for my version of TripleX. Here is my code with the win/lost statements.
if (GuessSum == CodeSum && CodeProduct == GuessProduct)
{
std::cout <<"The airline officer congradulates you and lets you board the plane";
}
else
{
std::cout<< "The airline officer says that you didn't complete the puzzle correctly and now the filight is full, you now have to wait 3 hours for the next flight.";
}
Ah, well… Would you look at that… 
So for me it looks like this :
if (GuessSum == CodeSum && GuessProduct==CodeProduct)
{
std::cout << "You have escaped!";
}
else
{
std::cout << "Wrong code, you have been captured again!";
}```

You play as an AI who is trying to hack a nuclear facility and wipe out humanity.
For the Winning text and types in the correct guess, the console prints: “Kli-click! The code was correct and the safe is unlocked! Hurrah! Your travel plans are safe! You’ve certainly earned your vacation now!”;
If the player doesn’t guess correctly, the losing text that is printed reads: “Wait, why is something smouldering inside the safe… OH NOOOO!! You’ve failed and set off a trap that burned up your travel plans! GAME OVER”

if the player succeeds the program prints congratulations the cops were left in the dust, if they loose the code prints you got busted game over , you now spend 20 years in jail.

triplex.cpp(35): warning C4551: function call missing argument list
triplex.cpp(35): error C2568: 'identifier': unable to resolve function overload
When I tried to compile my project after adding my if/else win statement, it threw up this error. Here is my code:
if (GuessAdd == SumAddition && GuessMultiply == SumMultiplication)
{
std::cout << " The computer slowly processes your code...";
std::endl;
std::cout << "You win! The computer quickly scans the database...but find nothing. Huh.";
}
else
{
std::cout << "The security system caught you! Try again? (Enter *triplex*.)"
}
I’ve looked at the code for a few minutes now and can’t find any reason why it shouldn’t be working. The terminal says there are no issues, and I don’t understand the error code it’s throwing up. Whenever I type “triplex” into the terminal, it acts as if it hasn’t compiled/saved in a while (even though I know it has) and just does the simple you win message and not the one I have in the code. Not sure how I broke it, but I have…can anyone help me?
EDIT: I solved it…apparently you’re not allowed to use “std::cout << endl;” in a if/else statement?
Just keeping it simple haha
if(GuessSum == CodeSum && GuessProduct == CodeProduct)
{
std::cout << std::endl << "You win! The guests are delighted.";
}
else
{
std::cout << std::endl << "Whoops. That didn't go over so well...";
}
