Validation so that the program only allows entry of numbers

[jp22]

Hi, could someone help me with my program. I have my program that is from a restaurant where you have to enter what you will eat for lunch, drink and dessert. The program gives you the invoice-like quantities and prices, all right there, the problem is that I need that when you enter any character that is not a number the program allows you to re-select the correct option for each option. If anyone could help me with this I would greatly appreciate it.

Did you know you can putcin >> variable into the condition of a while loop?

while(cin >> variable) {
    // If we're here, we read into variable successfully. Do something with it!
}

It's a handy little pattern. However, here, you want to do something repeatedly so long as the read failed. That would look more like:

while( !( cin >> variable ) ) {
    //TODO: Print a message complaining about the input.
    cin.clear(); //Reset the error flags for cin so that we can try again.
}

You have a lot of cin >> someinteger lines, so you might want to consider writing a function that returns an int and does that whole while loop for you.

Good luck!

thanks for the reply. and if I deal with the ctype.h library (isalpha isdigit) how would it be? to validate the options and the menu in this case.
