visual C++ logic game help, please

Question

I am to create a c++ logic game with with the difficulty of 3-10 characters (@#%?) that are produced within a string randomly. The player is to guess the random characters. Once the player has guessed, the message of how many the player guessed right is displayed. I am using the switch command to have the player determine the difficulty level, I am not sure how to create a random string with gen_random.

Please format this in the form of a question. – JoshD Oct 21 '10 at 18:47 — JoshD, Oct 21 '10 at 18:47
Is your question: "How do I generate a random string?" – C Johnson Oct 21 '10 at 19:05 — C Johnson, Oct 21 '10 at 19:05

This sounds like homework. But remember that a character is just a number you can get a random number using rand. So char x = 'a' + aRandomNumber()
