Crap games in C - c

Question

I'm trying to make a craps game where there would be dice rolling to check if it hits the target. I can't be sure what's wrong with my while loop but it keeps running even when the while loop requirement is false. Here is my code:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
int rollDice() {
int sum, d1, d2;
sum = 0;
d1 = (rand() % 6) + 1;
d2 = (rand() % 6) + 1;
sum = d1 + d2;
printf("Player rolled %d + %d = %d\n", d1, d2, sum);
return sum;
}
int main() {
int player, target, tries;
srand(time(NULL));
tries = 0;
player = rollDice();
target = player;
if (player == 7 || player == 11) {
printf("Player wins.\n");
}
else if (player == 2 || player == 3 || player == 12) {
printf("Player loses.\n");
} else {
printf("Point is %d. The game continues: \n", target);
player = rollDice();
}
printf("Player is %d, Target is %d.\n", player, target);
while (target != player || player != 7) {
player = rollDice();
}
return 0;
}

Answer 1

The game ends when a 7 is thrown or when the player's score is thrown again. Hence the while test should be while (target != player && player != 7), not while (target != player || player != 7).
You must also move the while loop inside the last else block.
Here is a modified version:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
int rollDice(void) {
int sum, d1, d2;
sum = 0;
d1 = rand() % 6 + 1;
d2 = rand() % 6 + 1;
sum = d1 + d2;
printf("Player rolled %d + %d = %d\n", d1, d2, sum);
return sum;
}
int main() {
int player, target, tries;
srand(time(NULL));
tries = 0;
player = rollDice();
target = player;
if (player == 7 || player == 11) {
printf("Player wins.\n");
} else
if (player == 2 || player == 3 || player == 12) {
printf("Player loses.\n");
} else {
printf("Point is %d. The game continues:\n", target);
player = rollDice();
printf("Player is %d, Target is %d.\n", player, target);
for (;;) {
if (player == 7) {
printf("Pass loses\n");
break;
}
if (player == target) {
printf("Pass wins\n");
break;
}
player = rollDice();
}
}
return 0;
}
