C++, How can I modify this code to have up to 6 players (can be 2,3,4,5,6 player depending on user)? Thank you So ask the user for number of players, if user says 3...simulate 3 players If user says 5, simulate for 5 players and so on. **all players must start OUTSIDE and only enters game if they roll a six and whoever rolls a 6 plays again #include #include #include using namespace std; #define DESTINATION 30 // define 30 as the winning position int dice() { srand(time(NULL)); // used for seeding in order to get // different random values each time return (rand()%6 +1); // since %6 gives 0 to 5, so add 1. } int snake(int n) { if (n == 17) return 4; else if (n == 19) return 7; else if (n == 21) return 9; else if (n == 27) return 1; } int ladder(int n) { if (n == 3) return 22; else if (n == 5) return 8; else if (n == 11) return 26; else if (n == 20) return 29; } int main () { int currentpos = 1; // user starts at 1 int value; // value on dice int count = 0; // to keep track of the number of dice rolls char choice; choice = 'N'; // by default consider choice as NO do { if (choice == 'Y' || choice == 'y') { value = dice(); count++; // increment the number of dice rolls cout << "The dice reads " << value <<".\n"; currentpos += value; if (currentpos > DESTINATION) { // check if current position is going beyond the destination cout << "Sorry!

So ask the user for number of players, if user says 3...simulate 3 players
If user says 5, simulate for 5 players and so on.
