I am working on a college project for C++ that gets a user to guess a letter. The letters of the alphabet are held in a string from a project file that was asked to be modified for the project.
I set the project file up very similar to that of another guessing game that I found coding for that gets the user to guess a number. I set up my code for this project to create a random number and assign the value to the letter string to get the letter. I know I haven't finished the calling for it yet.
The last few times I went to run the program it came up with over 30 errors most of them to my string comparisons to figure out if the user is correct.
Can anyone help me figure out how to fix these? I think I can figure out the calling afterwards if this is fixed.
These are the errors I have:
1>c:\course technology\83618-4\cpp5\chap12\ch12appe04 solution\ch12appe04 project\ch12appe04.cpp(42) : error C2082: redefinition of formal parameter 'x'

This is what I have so far:
//Ch12AppE04.cpp
//Allows the user to guess a letter chosen
//randomly by the computer
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <ctime>
#include <iomanip>
#include <stdlib.h>
using std::cout;
using std::cin;
using std::endl;
using std::string;
using namespace std;
string check (string guess, int x, int letter);
int main()
{
//declare variables
string letters [26] = {"a","b","c","d","e","f","g","h","i","j","k","l"," m","n","o","p","q","r","s","t","u","v","w","x","y" ,"z"};
string guess = "";
int letter = 0;
int x = rand();
//ask the user to guess a number
cout<<"Number: ";
cin>>guess;
cout<< check (guess, x, letter)<<endl<<endl;
return 0;
} //end of main function
int randomNum(int x, string letter)
{
int x = rand()%25;
cin >> letter [x] >> endl;
return x;
}
string check(string guess, int x, int letter){
if(guess=x)
{
cout << "You win, the letter is "<<x<< endl;
}
if(guess>x)
{
cout <<"The number is lower than "<<guess<< endl;
}
if(guess<x)
{
cout <<"The number is lower than "<<guess<< endl;
}
}//end of program
