Im a beginner with C++ and this is for homework but Im stuck. I have one remaining problem and then im finished. I can'T think of an algorithm that will tell if the user entered a small straight (1234) or (2345) or (3456). I know how to do it using a loop but is it possible to not use a loop? When this was assigned, we did not learned about loops yet. I think we are only suppose to use if statements. I started coding for it (I wrote what the dice can be, but cant figure out how to let only 4 dice go straight without an array and loop). Im stuck! Please help! Can you also check at my code and see if there is anything wrong so far.
Assigned Problem:
Playing poker with dice. (Kinda like Yahtzee)
• Have the user enter 5 dice rolls (1-6) in any order. Have the user type in 5 numbers. If any are outside of the 1 to 6 inclusive range, just end the program.
• Count and print the number of ones entered.
• Count and print the number of twos entered.
• Count and print the number of threes entered.
• Count and print the number of fours entered.
• Count and print the number of fives entered.
• Count and print the number of sixes entered.
• Tell if there are three or more dice the same.
• Tell if there are four or more dice the same.
• Tell if there are five dice the same.
• Tell if there is a full house, 3 the same and 2 the same.
• Tell if there is a long straight ... 1 2 3 4 5 or 2 3 4 5 6
• Tell if there is a small straight (1 2 3 4) or (2 3 4 5) or (3 4 5 6)
