Question

for (int i = 0; i < NumberOfPlayers; i++)
{
     NextMove = playerPositions[i] + DiceThrow();

     while (RocketInSquare(NextMove) == true)
          playerPositions[i] = NextMove++;

     playerPositions[i] = NextMove;
}

I’m having some trouble with this for loop. Is there a way i can make the line :

NextMove = playerPositions[i] + DiceThrow();

Only run once in the for loop?

Answer 1

you should just move that line out of the loop.

NextMove = playerPositions[0] + DiceThrow(); 
for (int i = 0; i < NumberOfPlayers; i++)
{
     while (RocketInSquare(NextMove))
          NextMove++;

     playerPositions[i] = NextMove;
}
