Q) The code is getting rather long and I am struggling to keep track of where everything is. How can we fix this?
A) Yes, I agree. In the next chapter, we will look at the first of a few ways we can organize our code and make it more readable. We will see this when we learn about writing C++ functions. In addition, we will learn a new way of handling multiple objects/variables of the same type (like the clouds) when we learn about C++ arrays.
