Slot Machine help

Vorstoss (12)
Im new to C++ and trying to make my own little program for fun. I was at the casino the other day playing quarter slots and I was inspired to make my own little slot program. This is what I have thus far. Any advice or thoughts would be appreciated. Some problems I am having are the user's credits not updating correctly such as adding the winnings to the user's credit and subtracting the bet. I also need a better way to stop the program; when 'q' is entered it just runs an infanate loop...which is a no no.... so any Ideas? Pointers? Thanks in advance.

Then this is appropriate for the beginner forum.

Just as you decrease userCredit for losing, you need to increase userCredit for winning. cout << userCredit + 1000 just prints 1000 more than userCredit, it doesn't increase it.

Since userBet is an unsigned int, it can't receive a char as input. Read this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/71t65ya2%28v=vs.80%29.aspx
