Distance Calc Program not working correctly

BEARS (43)
The program below works, but not the way I wanted. I want the program to allow the user to enter in values with or without parentheses and/or commas. It doesn't seem to be working correctly. How can I fix this?!?!?!? Also, what can I do so (using the peek() function) so that the program ignores or automatically puts in a comma.

First learn to modularize your code. It makes it easier for you to debug, and it also makes it easier for us to debug.

Modularizing means taking all of the unrelated functions and making an external function for each of them.
