help with simple loop bank account program

[PJ63]

im trying to create a simple program that mimics a savings account. I'm getting stuck at the "yes/no" while loops where the program wont go to the "no" part of the program if i type "n". I'm also allowed to assume that the customer won't make a withdraw and deposit in the same month.

int main()

{
int interestRate;
int initialDeposit;
int deposit;
int withdraw;
int balance;
int change;
int months;
char choice;
char y;
char n;


//use for, while, and do while loops each at least once!!!

cin >> setprecision(3) >> interestRate;

cout << "what is your initial deposit?: ";
cin >> initialDeposit;

if (initialDeposit < 250)
{
cout << "please deposit at least $250 into your account.\n"
<< "what is your initial deposit?\n\n"

cin >> initialDeposit;
}

else
{

balance = initialDeposit + initialDeposit*interestRate/100;

cout << "your balance is " << balance << "\n";


for (;balance >= 250;)
{
cout<< "would you like to deposit more money into this account? (y/n): ";
cin >> choice;

@PJ63

You're not checking the inputs against a char. For that, you need to enclose the y and n in single quotes. 'y' and 'n'. Also, this change = -withdraw, will not decrease change by the withdrawal. It assigns change to a minus withdraw. To decrease change, it should be change -= withdraw which means 'change equals change minus the value of withdraw'

ok so i made the changes, but im still stuck at the same place.
