Dev-C++, Only One Input...

xitan (25)
Hey forum, I'm having a problem with my program. I can't seem to enter more than one command and then I'm forced to close my program. For example, when I assign a value to a variable and press enter it goes through, but then when I try to perform another action the window closes... any hot fixes?

Thanks,
Xitan

What is your code?

- Also : Change your IDE, Dev-C++ is outdated http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/articles/7263/ -

Well to start I would like to tell you there isn't much help to be offered unless you submit your code for that piece of your program.

Sorry about the title, was a dumb idea i got in my head.

What are you doing on lines 34, 38 and 46 with goption >= 5?

Can you elaborate that? You are reading input only once in your program so it does what it should.

I know for starters you need a pound symbol (#) in front of your include at the beginning.

His cin.get(); command accepts a second input which puts on the illusion of another variable input and then proceeds to closing the program.
