if you are doing names, try string, and not char since you are not inputting a single character, or are you? for their name

[j3Rz8vqX]

In both your if statements, you're comparing a c_string against a character value.

Which is invalid.

A possible solution:
Change "yes" to 'y' and "no" to 'n', and use y/n for your more data entry determination.

[giblit]

Your error kind of mentions then comparing a single character to a string of characters and the line number.

char r;
if (r == "yes") //how is 1 character equal to 3 characters?
if (r == "no") //same as the one above


double age; //why is age a double? Someone is 10.234 years old? Seems weird
double age2; //Same as above


//All of these should be avoided
goto label1;
goto done;
label1:
done:
goto done;
