Need help outputting things from different functions (C++) -


i new c++ , coding in general. trying make basic little multiple choice type game practice have run conundrum.

the program isn't outputting want too. here code:

#include <iostream> #include <cstdlib> #include <ctime> #include <string>  using namespace std;  void sword(int damage); void fists(int damage);  static int enemyhealth = 250;  int main() {     srand(time(0));      string sof; //abreveation "sword or fists"      cout << "you fighting mean bad guy. using sword, or fists?\n";      while (sof != "sword" && sof != "fists"){         cout << "please enter choice of either 'sword' or 'fists': ";         cin >> sof;     }      cout << "okay! time fight! \n";      if (sof == "fists") {         void fists();     }     else if (sof == "sword") {         void sword();     }     else{ (null); }      cout << "congratulations! have vanquished foul beast!\n";      system("pause"); }  //this when user chooses 'sword' void sword(int damage = rand() % 100 + 50) {     while (enemyhealth > 0){         cout << "you deal " << damage << " damage sharp sword. \n";         enemyhealth -= damage;     } }  //this when user chooses 'fists' void fists(int damage = rand() % 10 + 4) {     while (enemyhealth > 0){         cout << "you deal " << damage << " damage womanly fists. \n";         enemyhealth -= damage;     } } 

the first part works fine, when enter choice of either "fists" or "sword" output is:

okay! time fight! congratulations! have vanquished foul beast! 

but want output damage being done either fists or sword.

if that, amazing. thanks!

void fists(); declaration, not call, change fists(); , sword();

other things at:

  • default parameters declared in function declaration before main (or move whole functions there)
  • default parameters in c++ evaluated once, 'hits' same in code
  • local variable names not named in uppercase, sof looks loke #defined constant or such.
