Answer:
In C++:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(){
int userScore = 0;
string simonPattern, userPattern;
cout<<"Simon Pattern: "; cin>>simonPattern;
cout<<"User Pattern: "; cin>>userPattern;
for (int i =0; i < simonPattern.length();i++){
if(simonPattern[i]== userPattern[i]){
userScore++; }
else{ break; }
}
cout<<"Your value: "<<userScore;
return 0;
}
Explanation:
This initializes user score to 0
int userScore = 0;
This declares simonPattern and userPattern as string
string simonPattern, userPattern;
This gets input for simonPattern
cout<<"Simon Pattern: "; cin>>simonPattern;
This gets input for userPattern
cout<<"User Pattern: "; cin>>userPattern;
This iterates through each string
for (int i =0; i < simonPattern.length();i++){
This checks for matching characters
if(simonPattern[i]== userPattern[i]){
userScore++; }
This breaks the loop, if the characters mismatch
else{ break; }
}
This prints the number of consecutive matches
cout<<"Your value: "<<userScore;
