Battleship C++

Don't miss any of Entertainment Tonight's Battleship coverage. See more Battleship news, exclusive interviews, photos, and videos from Entertainment Tonight. The Battleships - The Darkness Of The Future. Comments are disabled for this video.

The example is a video on youtube and here is the link:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-9FK83iZ_8

This is what I have so far. I got some notes on here too, to tryto help make it better and complete it faster.

*What I need help the most is from 'void hideBoat()' andbelow that, but if you see anything that needs to be correted ormissing please let me know so I can fix it with yourhelp.

The program should do the following things and for credit itmust utilize at least 3 functions:

*Correctly print the instructions

*Correctly print the board (excluding the ship)

*Randomly places a ship on the board in a valid position

*Validates the player's input

- Accepts only rows A - E and columns 1 - 5 only

- Does not accept a guess that was made previously

*Allows the player 10 turns to sink the ship

- If the ship is sank in 10 turns the player wins, otherwise,the player loses

- At the end of the game the player can choose to play again andthe game restarts, otherwise, the game is exited

Note: The example in the video displays 'S' where theship is located, this is for demonstration purposes only, myprogram should hide this by not displaying the 'S'characters.

My battleship box isn't exacly like the one on the videobut it is good enough for me so it doesn't need to befixed.
