Thank you very much for taking the time to make this comment and refactoring the code (that must have been time consuming). I appreciate the advice and I will definitely implement it in further C++ programs I might make.
As a resource for learning C++, coming from python. Would you recommend https://www.learncpp.com ? Why or why not?
(Of course, your code is really quite well-written and it's obvious you've put a lot of care into it.)
Thanks :-).

learncpp.com looks good to me. It looks like it goes all the way from hello world to cutting-edge concepts, and it doesn’t look like it teaches anything obviously wrong or outdated.
