LetsVacuum, a family-owned manufacturer of high-end vacuum cleaners, has grown exponentially over the last few years. However, the company is having difficulty preparing for future growth. The only information system used at LetsVacuum is an old accounting system. The company has one manufacturing plant located in Selangor; and three warehouses, in Johore, Kedah, and Trengganu. The LetsVacuum sales force comprises only Malaysian nationals, and the company purchases about 25 percent of its vacuum parts and materials from a single overseas supplier. You have been hired to recommend the information systems LetsVacuum should implement in preparing for future growth.

Using C++ and using a boolean variable with local scope to control the looping structure:
How do I create a program that will simulate a game of craps with the below qualification:
Containing two functions -an int rollDice() function that will simulate the rolling of two dice and the main function. When called the roll Dice() function will generate two random numbers between 1 and 6 inclusive, add them, and return the sum as the integer variable “point”. The function will also output the value of the “roll” of each digital die and the value of “point” to cout. Selection and looping structures in the int main() function will determine the impact of each roll (win, lose, or roll again) on the game, print the results, and continue the game if necessary.
