Ok,
This is my problem, here is the question to better understand "Enter the length of a rectangle or enter 'x' to exit" (when you exit you return to an earlier function, but that is not important). When the user enters a value for the square I need to use it for a mathmatical operations, obviously the int will not accept a char, but if I put a number in a char it will not work because a char has its own numerical value.

P.S. Thanks for the help with my "Stuck in a loop" problem.
