• Module: CMP104
• Title: Programming with C++
• Grade: A

Below is a demonstration of my slot machine. Give it a wee watch.

I'm very happy with how this program turned out. It was my first major program after learning C++ for around 3 months. I had no programming experience before starting University, so when my first assignment was to make a slot machine I was understandably concerned. I had immense difficulty getting the slots rotating and stopping each rotor. However, once I overcame this obstacle and everything clicked it was very fun designing the interface with LaMothe Code. I decided a Lucky Slots theme was the only way to go 😁.

When beginning, you start with 20 gold and it costs 10 gold to spin the slots. If you fail twice in a row then you're outta luck and have to restart the game.

Prizes:

• Jackpot: 100 gold (Getting all characters the same)
• Mini Jackpot: 50 gold (Getting 3 characters the same)

Losing:

• You lose if you don't get 3 or all characters the same.
• An encouraging message will display if the player loses.
• You can replay if you have enough gold, if not a lovely shamrock End Game message will display.
