Any suggestions for this program?
It works. Just looking for pointers. Thanks!

Ha ha guess i set myself up there
RUNNER PRO AGARIO (275)
well, you could set up input checking, for when the user enters an invalid value.

if (!cin)
  std::cout << "Err";

In place of this?

while (subtotal < 0)
	{
		cout << "Enter a valid subtotal: " << endl;
		cin >> subtotal;
RUNNER PRO AGARIO (275)
No, in front of each cin. By the way, you could force the user to enter a valid integer each time.

while (subtotal < 0 || (!cin))
	{
		cout << "Enter a valid subtotal: " << endl;
		cin >> subtotal;


this could work

ok Im still n00bish haven't gotten
(!cin)
status yet. I'll give it a shot though. Thanks!

Agario is awesome i love that game
RUNNER PRO AGARIO (275)
YAY, SOMEONE LIKES AGARIO TOO.

!cin is a validator, that validates cin, if cin fails, it returns false,. It fails when invalid input is given, such as input being too long, or being non char. This is good because most compilers go into this random infinite loop after failing cin.

Ps: Me and my friend's channel is TNT clan, search it up, you might find me, runner
