Also, If you want to ensure there wont be any error, put the following under each cin.ignore();
Code:
q#=tolower(q#); //REPLACE # with the number of the variable.
Ex.
q2=tolower(q2);
That will make all the characters lower case and ensure that there are no errors with the if statements, if you didnt do that and someone entered an Uppercase Letter instead of a lowercase letter it would say you got it right even if you didnt.
Enjoy
