if (Age_Dara>20 & Age_Dara!=22 & Age_Dara<24){
--DarasHeart;
cout << "Dara: Ooo! Close... but no cigar!" << endl;

Answer 2

It runs fine but there are 2 problems I need help with.
1. it's too long. How do I make it more efficient or shorter with the conditions set above? (I'm not that far into it yet.)
2. for the condition Age_Dara==22 shows up twice. Once when it is stated directly, and another under the condition when the Age_Dara was entered >28.
How do I get it to stop and just continue with the rest of the program when the condition first realized is >28?
(i.e. what happens is :
"Hmph! Lucky Guess." //where I would like it to stop.
"Hey you got it! Good Job!")
