My program compiles and works perfectly but the the menu doesn't work? I couldn't know what's the problem with it ?
Here is my menu
Code:int tester;
while ( (tester>=1)&&(tester<4) )

cout << "select one of these options\n";
cout << "(1) Insert a new code\n";
cout << "(2) Print the data\n";
cout << "(3) Exit the program\n";
cin >> tester;
if(tester==1){
cout << "Insert a code of 12 characters:";
cin >> codeNumber;
length = codeNumber.length();
rect.set_values (length,codeNumber);
rect.check();
}
if (tester==2){
cout << "Insert a code of 12 characters:";
cin >> codeNumber;
length = codeNumber.length();
rect.set_values (length,codeNumber);
rect.check();
rect.printCode(length);
}
if (tester==3){
break;
}
else{
cout << "ERROR!!! You must choose one of the following options 1 to 4";
