Verify user input

[PowerEdge]

Hi,

I need to verify (in a loop) that a user has input no more than 9 numbers and that it does not start with 0. Not sure where to begin on this.

1. Create a array of 9 elements
2. use for loop to store 9 input into the array
3. check if first input is equal to zero
4. if true, cout error message and exit
5. else continue inputting the numbers into array

int num[9];
for(int i=0;i<9;i++)
{
  cout<<"Enter number "<<i+1<<" :";
  cin>>num[i];
   if(i==0 && num[i]==0)
   {
         cout<<"Your input cannot start with zero.program termiantes"<<endl;
          return 1;
          break;
    }
}
