function that takes care of turn

[timbomo]

i dont know of a better way to write this i am stuck. i want to tell the user whose turn it is : i get this error

error: expected `:' before ';' token

for this code below

int turn_it_is(int play1, int play2)
{
    cout << (((play1%2)==1)((play1:play2));
    cout <<  " it's your turn ";
    cin >> turn_it_is;
}

I think you're missing the question mark, and the options shouldn't be encased together in parentheses.

As jkmyoung says:
The ternary operator or conditional expression operator is:
condition ? expression1 : expression 2
e.g. min=(x<y?x:y) //min would be assigned the value of x if x<y else min=y

[sridhard2406]

you can use this ternary operation on above line of cout, store the output on temperary variable, and write the the cout.

What is

turn_it_is

in the above code? And you need to fix the ternary operator.
