The document outlines a C++ program for a number guessing game, detailing the necessary libraries and functions used. It includes input validation for user guesses, random number generation, and game instructions. Key components include checking if input is a valid number and ensuring guesses fall within a specified range of 1 to 100.

#include <iostream> - Provides input and output stream objects such as

std::cin, std::cout,

#include <random> - Provides facilities for generating random numbers


and working with random number distributions. Provides facilities for
generating random numbers and working with random number distributions.

#include <limits> - Defines characteristics and limits of fundamental data


types (e.g., int, double).

#include <string> - Provides the std::string class and related utilities for
handling strings.

using namespace std; - allows you to avoid having to prefix all Standard
Library elements (e.g., std::cout, std::string) with the std:: namespace.

isValidNumber - checks if the given string represents a valid number.

const string& input: - function takes a constant reference to a std::string


to avoid copying the string unnecessarily.

if (input.empty()) return false; - immediately returns false if the string is


empty because an empty string cannot represent a valid number.

for (char c : input) - uses a range-based for loop to iterate through each
character in the string input

if (!isdigit(c)) - checks if a character is a decimal digit (0-9). The negation


(!) ensures the loop identifies any non-digit character

return false - If a non-digit character is found, the function immediately


returns false.

return true - indicating the string is composed entirely of numeric digits.

cout << " Welcome to the Number Guessing Game! " << endl; - This
line is simply displaying a welcome message to the user when they start the
game.

random_device rd; - This creates a random number generator.

mt19937 gen(rd()); - it initializes a Mersenne Twister 19937 random


number generator.
By using a seed, the sequence of generated numbers is unpredictable.
uniform_int_distribution<> dis(1, 100); - This sets up a uniform
distribution for integers between 1 and 100, inclusive. It ensures that every
number within the range has an equal chance of being selected.

int random_number = dis(gen); - The dis (distribution) object takes the


random number generator gen as input.

int total_attempts = 0; - This declares and initializes a variable


total_attempts to keep track of how many guesses the user has made.

int user_guess; - This declares a variable user_guess to store the user's


numeric guess after converting it from the input.

cout << "\nGuess the number between 1 and 100." << endl; - This
prints an instruction to the user, informing them of the range for the
guessing game.

while (true) -

string user_guess_input; - Declares a std::string variable to capture the


user’s input as text.

cout << "Enter your guess: ";: - Prompts the user to enter their guess.

cin >> user_guess_input; - Reads the input from the user into the
user_guess_input variable.

stoi(user_guess_input) - stoi stands for "string to integer" and Converts


the validated numeric string into an integer

stoi(user_guess_input) > 100 || stoi(user_guess_input) < 1: - These


conditions check if the converted integer is outside the valid range.
If the number is out of range, the loop continues, prompting the user to re-
enter a valid number.
