Go back to part of code

Ashley Macdonald (18)
I am making a text adventure, I am a beginner at c++ and I need the code to loop back to a previous part of code every time you leave the shop.

Here is my code.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
    string username;
    cout << "Choose your username: ";
    cin >> username;  //User chooses Username
    system("CLS"); //clears screen

    system("PAUSE");
    system("CLS");
    cout << "Feel free to look around the town!" << endl;

    cout << "1 = shop, 2 = town hall" << endl; 
    int choice;
    cin >> choice;  //User picks place
    if (choice == 1 ) {  //if statement
    cout << "You chose shop!" << endl;
    system("PAUSE");
    system("CLS");
    int shop1
    cout << "Shopkeeper: What would you like to buy?" << endl << endl;
    cout << "1 = Iron Sword: 25 gold coins." << endl;
    cout << "2 = Iron Shield: 40 gold coins." << endl;
    cout << "3 = Iron Armour: 75 gold coins." << endl;
    cout << "4 = Apple: 5 gold coins. " << endl;
    cout << "5 = Steak: 15 gold coins." << endl;
    cout << "6 = Leave Shop." << endl << endl;  //leave shop choice
    cin >> shop1
    if (shop1 == 6) {
              //Code here...
    }
    }
    else if (choice == 2) {
               cout << "You chose town hall!" << endl;
          }
    else {
               cout << "Error 0: Invalid number. Shutting down..." << endl;
               system ("PAUSE"); 
               return 0;
    }
          
    system ("PAUSE"); 
    return 0;
}

Use a while loop. Or use a for loop. Use some kind of loop.

If you need help with what these are, then go here:
http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial%20%20/control/

Look at Iteration Structure (loops)

Do not look at the "goto" statement. You should need to use it for this project.
