Question

In the image below, the C++ function getColors is supposed to get two colors from the user. If the user enters something other than a primary color ( RED = 1, BLUE = 2, YELLOW = 3) OR if the user enters two of the same colors, a message should be displayed: "Invalid colors." Otherwise the message should be "Those are valid colors." The function getColors should be of type bool. My if statements are not correct because even if I enter two of the same numbers, the message, "Those are valid colors." is displayed. Please help me fix my if statements.

Explanation / Answer

#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
#define RED 1
#define BLUE 2
#define YELLOW 3

bool getColors(int&,int&);

int main(int argc, char const *argv[])
{
   int col1,col2;
   if(getColors(col1,col2))
   {
       cout<<"Those are valid colors "<<endl;
   }
   else
   {
               cout<<" Invalid colors "<<endl;

   }
   return 0;
}

bool getColors(int& col1,int& col2)
{
   cout<<"Enter your two primary colors: 1 for red,2 for Blue and 3 for yellow ";
   cout<<"Two colors must be different ";
   cin>>col1>>col2;
   bool status=true;
   if(col1==col2)
       status=false;
   else
   {
       if(col1!=BLUE&&col1!=RED&&col1!=YELLOW&&col2!=BLUE&&col2!=RED&&col2!=YELLOW)
           status=false;
       else
           status=true;
  

   }
   return status;
}
