Question

Tosssing Coins for a Dollar (C++)

For this assigment, you will create a game program using the Coin class from Programming Challenge 12 (Coin Toss Simuator). The prgram should have three instances of the Coin class: one representing a quarter, one representing a dime, and one representing a nickel.

When the game begins, your starting balance is $0. During each round of the game, the program will toss the simulated coins. When a coin is tossed, the value of the coin is added to your balance if it lands heads-up. For example, if a quarter lands heads-up, 25 cents is added to your balance. Nothing is added to your balance for coins that land tails-up. The game is over when your balance reachers $1 or more. If your balance is exactly $1, you win the game. You lose if your balance exceeds $1.

Make sure to include comments in your code.
