So yesterday I was bored sitting around nothin' to do. So I play this game called Petals Around the Rose, I got frustrated wtih it. After and hour and a half of trying to find the forumula I couldn't. So I looked it up (I cheatedd yes, yes). Anyways I made a C++ version of the game. I'll release it as source so if you get frustrated you can look at it to see the solution. If you want to solve it yourself don't look too closely at the source.

CODE

#include <iostream>
#include <time.h>
using namespace std;
void help()
{
system("cls");
cout<<"Help:"<<endl;
cout<<"Petals around the roses is dice/logic game. You have to solve the puzzle,\na roll of five dice is given and you have to figure out how many petals there \nare. Try to solve this puzzle, the name of the game is important.\nI read about this on the Inernet.Bill Gates played it, it's a good story.\nRead it by searching Petals Around the Rose on Google."<<endl;
system("pause");
}
void game()
{
system("cls");
cout<<"Petals Around the Rose"<<endl;
cout<<"Made By GameHawk"<<endl;
system("PAUSE");
cout<<"Ready? <Press Enter To Begin>"<<endl;
system("pause");
system("cls");
srand(time(NULL));
int a=rand()%6+1;
int b=rand()%6+1;
int c=rand()%6+1;
int d=rand()%6+1;
int e=rand()%6+1;
int f=rand()%6+1;
int total=0;
int guess=0;
//check and output
cout<<"Die I:"<<endl;
switch(a){case 1:cout<<"\n *\n"<<endl;break;case 2:cout<<"*\n\n *"<<endl;break;case 3:cout<<"*\n *\n *"<<endl;total+=2;break;case 4:cout<<"* *\n* *"<<endl;break;case 5:cout<<"* *\n *\n* *"<<endl;total+=4;break;case 6:cout<<"* *\n* *\n* *"<<endl;break;}
cout<<"Die II:"<<endl;
switch(b){case 1:cout<<"\n *\n"<<endl;break;case 2:cout<<"*\n\n *"<<endl;break;case 3:cout<<"*\n *\n *"<<endl;total+=2;break;case 4:cout<<"* *\n* *"<<endl;break;case 5:cout<<"* *\n *\n* *"<<endl;total+=4;break;case 6:cout<<"* *\n* *\n* *"<<endl;break;}
cout<<"Die III:"<<endl;
switch(c){case 1:cout<<"\n *\n"<<endl;break;case 2:cout<<"*\n\n *"<<endl;break;case 3:cout<<"*\n *\n *"<<endl;total+=2;break;case 4:cout<<"* *\n* *"<<endl;break;case 5:cout<<"* *\n *\n* *"<<endl;total+=4;break;case 6:cout<<"* *\n* *\n* *"<<endl;break;}
cout<<"Die IV:"<<endl;
switch(d){case 1:cout<<"\n *\n"<<endl;break;case 2:cout<<"*\n\n *"<<endl;break;case 3:cout<<"*\n *\n *"<<endl;total+=2;break;case 4:cout<<"* *\n* *"<<endl;break;case 5:cout<<"* *\n *\n* *"<<endl;total+=4;break;case 6:cout<<"* *\n* *\n* *"<<endl;break;}
cout<<"Die V:"<<endl;
switch(e){case 1:cout<<"\n *\n"<<endl;break;case 2:cout<<"*\n\n *"<<endl;break;case 3:cout<<"*\n *\n *"<<endl;total+=2;break;case 4:cout<<"* *\n* *"<<endl;break;case 5:cout<<"* *\n *\n* *"<<endl;total+=4;break;case 6:cout<<"* *\n* *\n* *"<<endl;break;}
cout<<"Die VI:"<<endl;
switch(f){case 1:cout<<"\n *\n"<<endl;break;case 2:cout<<"*\n\n *"<<endl;break;case 3:cout<<"*\n *\n *"<<endl;total+=2;break;case 4:cout<<"* *\n* *"<<endl;break;case 5:cout<<"* *\n *\n* *"<<endl;total+=4;break;case 6:cout<<"* *\n* *\n* *"<<endl;break;}
//end check
cout<<"How many petals around the rose? ";
cin>>guess;
if (guess==total)
{
cout<<"Correct, there are "<<total<<" petals around the rose!"<<endl;
system("pause");
}
else
{
cout<<"Wrong, there are "<<total<<" petals around the rose."<<endl;;
system("pause");
}

}
int main()
{
int menu=0;
while (menu!=3)
{
menu=0;
system("cls");
system("color 4");
cout<<"Petals Around the Rose"<<endl;
cout<<"Made by GameHawk"<<endl;
cout<<"---"<<endl;
cout<<"1. Play"<<endl;
cout<<"2. Help"<<endl;
cout<<"3. Exit"<<endl;
cout<<"---"<<endl;
cin>>menu;
if (menu==1)
{
game();
}
if (menu==2)
{
help();
}
}
}

I hope you like it, PS you need windows to use it. I compiled it in Dev-C++ version 4.9.8.0

Enjoy,

Master Member Group: Admin Posts: 1,363 Member No.: 15 Joined: 11-December 05	There's a formula all right! Once you find it, count up the number of dots that go along with the formula and whoila. -------------------- ----- Last Updated: October 23, 2006

Actually, it was because my math teacher showed it to us with cards and called it Polar Bears around the Fishing hole. I figured that out pretty quick and he was pretty amazed... I just saw it immediatly. But this was pretty cool... I liked that it was red, now I can read your code and figure out how to change the colour!

for color changing you need to do this:

CODE

system("color 0A");

you can replace the zero and the letter A
(A= bright green letters)
(0= black background)

the number always have to be before the letters...

Glad to see you posting somewhere other than off topic. Cheers, gamehawk -------------------- ----- Last Updated: October 23, 2006

I feel pretty comfortable with classes and structures. I just cant really get the hang of pointers... and what header is System stuff under? I dont really have time to look around at the moment.
