hey everyone...to start off with i was searching through the threads to see if i could find some info on the problem i have, but it seems i cannot find it...so i am going to ask the question now...i just begun programmin in C++ and i have a little slight problem...i created a menu where the user types in a specific number to do a specific thing, so when they type a number that is not included in the menu a little message says "invalid input" or something the like..but when i type in a letter, it just causes a flood...is there any way i can implement the code to get rid of this "bug"? thnx for the help!!!
