Exit the program

[menewbie]

Hi Guys!

For the most part my program is working fine, but when i want to exit the program by provide the choice 4, the program should terminate but it does not terminate by debugging I figured it out that the value loopCondition zero is not passing properly to the function... can you please help me where I need to make changes?

Here is my code

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

int menu(int);
int myChoice(char, int);

int main(){
    //char choice;
    int loopCondition = 1;
    cout << "\n\nTemperature Statistics\n----------------------\n\nReading logged values for processing and presentation...\n\nPress Enter for menu: ";
    cin.get();
    menu(loopCondition);
    return 0;
}

int menu(int loopCondition){
    char choice;
    while(loopCondition){
        cout<<"\n\nMENU\n----\n\n1. Display temperature values\n2. View maximum and minimum temperatures\n3. View average temperature\n4. Quit\n\nMake your choice: ";
        cin.get(choice);
        cin.get();
        myChoice(choice, loopCondition);
        cout<<"\n\nPress Enter to continue:";
        cin.get();
    }
    return 0;
}

int myChoice(char choice, int loopCondition){
    if(choice=='1'){
        double t;
        cout<<"\nDisplaying the latest 24 temperature values:\n\n";
        ifstream fil("templog.txt");
        for(int i=0;i<24;i++){
            if(i%6==0)
                cout<<endl;
            fil>>t;
            cout<<fixed<<setprecision(2)<<setw(8)<<t;
        }
        fil.close();
    }
    else if(choice=='2'){
        cout<<"\nCalculating the maximum and minimum temperature...\n";
    }
    else if(choice=='3'){
        cout<<"\nCalculating average temperature...\n";
    }
    else if(choice=='4'){
        loopCondition = 0;
        cout << "\n\nTerminating the program.";
        return loopCondition;
    }
}

Thanks in Advance
Sincere Regards

Modify line 24:

// myChoice(choice, loopCondition);
loopCondition = myChoice(choice, loopCondition); // returns 0 on exit

Hi JLBorges

The solution you have suggested exits the program in the second turn of while loop.. by changing the loopCondition to 0???
anyways thanks for your reply
