There is probably little reason to continue the conversation but I'll take
one more stab at it.

> I am a good person.
Nobody posted "you're a bad person."

> And I am not a guy either.
Nobody suggested that you were and nobody cares if you are or aren't.

That's your choice... I surely don't understand your decision but it is your
decision to make.

Trust me we can write a slot machine program also. If not individually
certainly as a group :-)

> Here is what I had before I even posted

You should have considered posting your code earlier then we could have made
suggestions for improvement. Please note (you seem intent on ignoring this)
you simply posted the "specs" which clearly was a homework assignment.
Personally I would give you a C as the code probably works. It is far from
elegant but you have to start somewhere.

Best of luck to you... the offer for you to post "answers" as a way to learn
remains open BTW.
