Driving me crazy..

This is a mathematics "testing" program, after every correct answer it increases the variable "userScore" by 1. This works perfectly along with the rest of the program, the only problem is that even when the answer the user inputs is WRONG and a message telling them they have got it wrong appears it STILL increments the "userScore" variable by 1.. I can't see whats wrong plaese help!

Take a look at this:

Code:

---

            Correctanswer = randomnumber1 * randomnumber2
            If Correctanswer = randomnumber1 * randomnumber2 Then
                userScore = userScore + 1
            End If

---

You are incrementing userScore if Correctanswer is equal to (randomnumber1 * randomnumber2) but how could it possibly NOT equal that when that's exactly what you just set it to? The same goes for all your other calculations. You're always testing Correctanswer to see if it's the very value you just set it to, so it always will be.

There's a serious flaw in your logic so I suggest that you forget the code for the moment and get your logic straight. Once you can execute the logic with pen and paper and get the correct result, then you can consider writing code to implement that logic.

Well the 3 IF statements that look like this right at the bottom of your code are always going to evaluate to true:

vb Code:

Correctanswer = randomnumber1 - randomnumber2
            If Correctanswer = randomnumber1 - randomnumber2 Then
                userScore = userScore + 1
            End If

Your setting the CorrectAnswer variable to the product of your equation and then just testing to see if the product of your equation is equal to the CorrectAnswer variable... which of course it is because you just set it in the line right before the IF statement. I assume you should be doing something like this instead:

vb Code:

Correctanswer = randomnumber1 - randomnumber2
If Correctanswer = AnswerTextBox.Text Then
    userScore += 1
End If

Obviously thats just assuming that you have a textbox that the user's answer would be in.
Also notice that I have changed the UserScore = UserScore + 1 statement to make it a little tider ;) still does the exact same thing.

Also, why are you declaring UserScore as Byte and not as Integer?
