Another if statement question ?

Question

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int x, y;
x = 100;
y = 5000;
if ( x > 99 ) {
cout << "Quest Complete!\n";
y = y + 1000;
cout << "Your new balance is: " << y << " ";
}
if ( x < 99 ) {
cout << "Quest is not complete.";
cout << "\n Click Here to Abandom Quest!";
}
return 0;
}
Hey guys. Could someone clarify this part of the code for me. y=y+100-.
I can't see how this is relevant ?
Thanks

Answer 1

as x>99 is true, 1000 is added to y. Y is 6000 now

Answer 2

if you want the initial value to remain nd wanna increase then u have to use initial value...
if u directly assign y=1000; it will only assing 1000 not 5000initial
