Does this program work as supposed to?

I was having an issue with choosing a random number in a range between ranges. For example 5-25. The code does not run as specified on my phone and I do not have access to a computer to run it. I know there is a lot of room for improvements to my code but I am just trying to test if I have the appropriate ideas and syntax to complete this problem as opposed to run time and algorithm "fill in the blank" (I can't think of a word lol.

I'd use two variables low and high. Move them after each guess as required. int low = 1, high = 100, compGuess = rand()%(high-low+1)+low; if (userInput.compare("Too high")) high = compGuess-1; else if (userInput.compare("Too low")) low = compGuess+1; compGuess = rand()%(high-low+1)+low;

Thanks a ton. I forgot that I could just add variables to make it more efficient. I was caught up in the equation and making sure I had the rand numbers correct.
