Certainly! Below is a README file for your C++ game code:
This is a simple reaction time game written in C++. The game presents asterisks (*) appearing at random intervals, and the player needs to input the corresponding number within a time limit to score points. Failing to input the correct number within the time limit results in losing the game.
- Randomized sequence of asterisks to test reaction time.
- Player input required to match asterisk appearance.
- Score tracking and game over conditions.
- Uses sleep function for timing (Note:
dos.h
andunistd.h
are Unix-based headers; the latter may not be compatible with Windows).
- Compile the
reaction_time.cpp
file using a C++ compiler. - Run the compiled executable.
- Enter your name when prompted.
- Asterisks will appear randomly, and you need to input the corresponding number quickly.
- Score points for each correct input.
- Failing to input the correct number within the time limit ends the game.
- The final score is displayed at the end of the game.
- C++ compiler
- Standard C++ libraries
- Clone or download the repository.
- Compile
reaction_time.cpp
using a C++ compiler. - Run the compiled executable.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to play the game.
- The game uses platform-specific headers (
dos.h
,unistd.h
) for timing. Ensure compatibility with your platform. - This is a simple console-based game intended for educational purposes.
