COP 1000c Lab Assignment 7

Who Wants to Be a Millionaire

Your final project will be to create a quiz game similar to “Who Wants to be a Millionaire?”

Requirements:

• Your game will include 5 questions.

• You will ask the user multiple choice questions (in increasing difficulty if possible).

• Each question, if answered correctly, will have a point value attached to it. The point values should be as follows: 100, 200, 500, 1000, 2000.

• Unlike the game on T.V., the score will be an accumulation of the points earned throughout the game and the user may continue if he/she answers incorrectly. Show the user’s point total after each question.

• At the end of the game, the user should be given the option to play again if he/she chooses.

• Include a text file called “highscore.txt” that stores the highest scoring player’s first name and score. Update the text file if the user scores the highest score.

• Include at least three functions in your program.

Input Validation: The user must choose valid options from menus.
