How do prompt user to repeat the program or finish using it

[cjr15]

Hello im quite new to c++ and havent really got a strong knowledge of it as i am just picking it up . i am loooking to make this program prompt the user with " do you want to do it again ? Y/N " if Y it starts the program again and takes it back to the main menu , if N it will just end the program , ive fiddled around with the code but i cant seem to make it work , anyone be able to help ,




cin.ignore();


}

char choice;

   //...
   cout<<"do you want to do it again ? Y/N ";
   cin>>choice;
}while(choice=='Y');

ne555 meant for you to put what you want repeated where he indicated with //... .


You main should look like this:

int main () 
{ char choice;
   //  loop until user doesn't want to continue
   do
   { // loop until the menu is processed 
      while (! processMenu()) 
      { // if we get here, the menu was not processed correctly 
         // so we bother them some more 
         cout << "Sorry, that is not a valid choice." << endl; 
         cout << "Please try again." << endl << endl << endl; 
       }  // end of  process menu loop
       // menu has been processed successfully 
       cout << "Calculate more grades ? y/n .\n" << endl; 
       cin>>choice;
   } while(choice=='Y');
}
