在我的程序中无限循环

好的,所以对于我的学校项目,我们基本上制作一个菜单,最多有20个人输入信息,如果需要可以改变。一切都很好。但是,我们的分配让我们检查输入邮政编码和帐户余额的整数值。我使用do-while循环进行ZipCode验证,直到输入正数和数字。但是,我得到了一个我似乎无法解决的无限循环。这是我的代码。如果放入编译器,则错误位于第57-68行。每次输入一个字母而不是一个整数时,我都会得到一个无限循环。但我无法弄清楚原因。谢谢!

在我开始使用循环检查ZipCode的数字值之前,一切都有效。当我输入一个字母时,循环只会变为无限。它适用于负数和正数。

1 个答案:

答案 0 :(得分:0)

可以找到简短的答案in cplusplus.com(阅读第三段)

答案很长:

此错误不仅仅与ZipCode有关,您可以在第一次cin来电时输入字母而不是数字时生成相同的错误。

cin不是类型安全的,因此使用错误的类型作为输入会导致未定义的行为(如您遇到的无限循环),这就是cin有点容易出错的原因。此外,cin获取输入值,但它不会删除换行符,读取您使用其他方法获得的更脏的输入。

说到其他方法,如链接中所述,尽可能尝试使用getline()。您可以使用该函数来获取cin缓冲区包含的字符串,并在必要时执行其他类型检查。无错误的程序比较短的程序更重要。

作为个人注释:尽可能使用while循环代替do..while循环。这不是编程的一般规则,但它看起来更易读,一般更容易理解(恕我直言)。

另外,尝试使用函数将程序拆分为多个部分。例如,您只是打印存储在屏幕上的信息的cout块可以转换为函数。您使用相同的cout结构(它会将您的代码缩短4 * 9行)。

最后,如果您使用整数作为键值来分隔算法,请尝试使用switch...case代替if-else块。 (再次,只是我的意见)。
