Soda Machine Invetory

So this is what I have so far. But I need to able make the machine keep track of how many sodas/drinks are left, and then, if the user choses it, tell them it was sold out. I figure I could do the last part, but I'm having serious problems actually figure out how to get it to count down and keep track of the sodas.

You need some variables to store the initial amount you have in the beginning - like
int num_cokes = 10
After you have sold one you decrement the variable. If the variable is 0 then you put out "Sold out"
