I did the Waterloo Canadian Computing Competition a month or so ago and I still cannot figure out where this issue I have been having is coming from. I have written the program twice to see if there was a compiler error or something but the exact same issue still happens.
The problem I am having is that the program is supposed to subtract the larger dice roll from the player with the lower dice rolls score but the program is getting strange numbers out of no where. I enter 3 as one players roll and 4 as another players score and the program subtracts 52 from the losers score.
