Infinate Loop

When i try to run my program i get an infinate loop and i dont understand why

Code:

#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
	string PlayerFullName, CharacterName, Class, Race, Password, stop, Racials;
	int hp = 0, xp = 0, mana = 0, sp = 15, SwitchRace;

	system("color 0a");
    system("cls");

    cout<<"\nEnter the DM Password or you shall be smited: ";
    getline(cin, Password, '\n');

    if (Password == "god")
    {
    system("cls");
    cout<<"\n\nyou truly are an evil gm\n\n Would you like to create a Player?(yes or no): ";
    cin>>stop;
   while (stop == "yes")
   {
 
    cout<<"Enter Player Full Name: ";
	getline(cin, PlayerFullName, '\n');
    cin.get();
    
	cout<<"\nEnter Character Name: ";
	getline(cin, CharacterName, '\n');
    cin.get();
    
	cout<<"\nEnter Class: ";
	getline(cin, Class, '\n');
    cin.get();
    
	cout<<"\nplayable races\n Good Aligned\n________\n(1)Human\n(2)Gnome\n(3)Halfling\n(4)Dwarf\n(5)Elf\n(6)Animal Folk\n(7)Seelie Fae\n\nEvil Aligned\n________\n(1)Human\n(8)Kobold\n(9)Goblin\n(10)Orc\n(11)Dark Elf\n(6)Animal Folk\n(12)Unseelie Fae \ntype the numbers that are next to the race name, to select that race.\n\nEnter Race: ";            
    cin>>SwitchRace;
    cin.ignore();
    
    switch ( SwitchRace )
    {
        case 1:
        cout<<"\n you chose Human +2 ability points";
        Race = "Human";
        sp = sp + 2;
        break;

    case 4:
    cout<<"\n you chose Dwarf +2 hp";
    Race = "Dwarf";
    hp = hp + 2;
    sp = 12;
    break;
    
        case 5:
        cout<<"\n you chose Elf +2 mana";
        Race = "Elf";
        mana += 2;
        sp = 12;
        break;
    
    case 6:
    cout<<"\n you chose Animal Folk";
    Race = "Animal Folk";
    Racials = "See Dm";

    Race = "Orc";
    Racials = "1/2 Cost Two-Handed";
    break;
    
        case 11:
        cout<<"\n you chose Dark Elf +2 mana";
        Race = "Dark Elf";
        mana += 2;
        sp = 12;
        break;
    
    case 12:
    cout<<"\n you chose Unseelie Fae +2 mana";
    Race = "Unseelie Fae";
    mana += 2;
    sp = 12;
    break;
   
   default:
   cout<<"\n that is not a Race! try again: ";
   cin>>SwitchRace;
   cin.ignore();
   break;
   }
     
    cout<<"\nyour player is.... \n \n \n\n\n\n\n";

	cout<<"\nDo you want to create another character? (yes or no): ";
    cin>>stop;
	cin.ignore();
	}
 }
 if (Password != "god")
 {
 }
cout<<"\nGoodbye";
cin.get();
 return 0;
}

> cin>>stop;

After the cin you should probably add either:

Code:

cin.ignore(80,'\n');

Or:

Code:

cin.ignore();

Like, infinite loop as in blinking cursor, or infinite loop as in screen after screen of scrolling text?

Code:

default:
   cout<<"\n that is not a Race! try again: ";
   cin>>SwitchRace;
   cin.ignore();
   break;

This does not start the switch statement all over again. You need a loop of some kind.

an infinatate loop as in it just keeps flashing text by tou know what i mean well i ahve to eat right now but ill brb to work on this

i put cin.ignore() after

cin>>stop;
while (stop == "yes")

but now it wont go past ( Would you like to create a Player?(yes or no): )

Use your debugger if you have one. Just step over each line of code one at a time, providing input when you need to, until you step over a line that is supposed to wait for input but keeps going instead. Whatever was the last read before that will probably be what is leaving the stream in a bad state or leaving extra characters in the stream.

ok thanks i got it

it compiled once then it started doing the same thing it was before .... i need help badly and my debugger isn't helping me at all

>i put cin.ignore() after

>cin>>stop;
>while (stop == "yes")

After the cin and before the loop?

Code:

cin>>stop;
cin.ignore();
while (stop == "yes")

THANK YOU!!! i accadentally looked over that part of the code
hehe... im tired been runnin on coffee for 2 days im goin to sleep now good thing to i needed thsi prog. tomorrow
