while loop help

[AndyBomstad]

hey guys i got a big prob, this program works...sorta but im having troubles getting this loop to work right, i suck at while loops so i need help, heres the code

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;

void autocheck();

void main()
{
    int sellerID;
    int autoID;
    double price;
    int c;
    ofstream fileout;
    
    while(c != 'y'){
    cout<<"Please Enter Seller ID : ";
    cin>>sellerID;
    cin.get();
    system("cls");
    cout<<"Please Enter Auto ID : ";
    cin>>autoID;
    cin.get();
    cout<<"Pease Enter Price : $";
    cin>>price;
    cin.get();
    
    fileout.open("C:/sellerID.txt",ios::app);
    fileout<<sellerID<<" ";
    fileout.close();
    fileout.open("C:/autoID.txt",ios::app);
    fileout<<"Seller's ID# "<<sellerID<<endl;
    fileout<<"Auto ID# "<<autoID<<endl;
    fileout<<"Price Sold "<<price<<endl<<endl;
    cout<<"Would You Like To Make Another Entry? y/n : ";
    cin>>c;}

    
}

the problem is at the end, when i try and loop it so that the user can enter more "data", when i go to enter 'y' so that it can start over the program crashes, im almost posative that its the loop, but anyways i really need help on this one guys, thanks!

1. STOP USING VOID MAIN
2. Indent
3. You need to initialize c to some value

c = 'y';

4. You logic for while loop is messed up, try this:

while(c == 'y'){

5. You need to use cin.get() here:

c = cin.get();
cin.ignore(80, '\n');

Now it works.
