I just compiled this on Linux, though I had to rename the time variable since it conflicts with std::time(). I'm not sure how you got away with that on Windows. Does the Visual C++ standard library really not have a time() function? Although, knowing Microsoft, that wouldn't actually surprise me. Also, I don't quite understand the "enthusiasm" thing. Is this just some random thing you threw in just to show your instructor that you know how to use a switch statement?
Anyway, to anyone else who wants to try it out, the code isclean safe, but I'd be wary of the included EXE file. I don't know whether it was compiled from this source or not and am too lazy to find out. Compile from source to be safe.

Yeah like I said I am not a programmer, just some noob who took the class. Yes it runs fine on my windows machine without changing the code. Yes the enthusiasm was added simply because you were suppose to implement as much as possible from the course and I had yet to add a switch.
. Also I think you need visual studio to open it as well.... 
Algar, didn't it strike you as odd that your RAR file actually takes up less data than your post about it?
