Aveek Bhattacharyya You need to _apply_ what I have posted to the code posted by estifanos tekiea and what you have already learned. Neither of us is here to do your work for you. Hint: You rand() will produce predictable numbers without a seed. We generally use the time as a seed. Look at the srand() function.

1. Get a random number. 2. Use % (modulus) 9 because modulus gives the remainder for division by the right operand, eg: 5 % 4 will give 1 because 5/4 = 1 remainder 1. 3. Add 1 to our final result. This prevents 0, eg: 5 % 5. Note we used 9 because we're adding 1. You already have an example code and your brains so I'll give you just a piece of code and you apply it: int ii = rand() % 9; ii++; // Can be written as (better): int ii = 1 + (rand() % 9); That should suffice. You have all the weapons you need, now fight!
