Minesweeper game in win 32 console app..

Hi every one This is my project in visual c++ 6.0
.cpp file is attached check it out and leave your comments.

Stop naming your variables 'a', 'b', 'c'.. .etc. One letter variables are horrible and make it easy to make mistakes. Give them normal names like 'row' and 'column'.

You are right and i'll consider it next time.

A couple of other minor suggestions:

1) Put a little bit of white space in there. What's easier to read? This

Code:

---

for(int i=0;i<10;i++)

---

or this

Code:

---

for( int i=0; i < 10; i++ )

---

Be consistent in your formatting.

2) Do your curly braces indent one level from the statement or not?

Is it

Code:

---

for(int i=0;i<10;i++)
    {
 
    }

---

or

Code:

---

for(int i=0;i<10;i++)
{
 
}

---

Pick a style and stick with it. Formatting is very important because good, consistent formatting can help with code readability. And readability leads to maintainability.

very nice suggestions Arjay ,infact when I started writing this code I had in my mind to make the code as readable as possible, I had plan to add comments so that any one can easily understand it. But once I start writing, debugging and making algorithm for the code simultaneously I could'nt manage to stick with my plan and once I finished it I found it boring to decorate it :p
anyways this was my first project I'll try to make my codes more readable next time.
