checking input

[junkpro11]

when i type in the wrong one it comes out the first time it shows "incorrect input", but when i type a right input in it afterwards it still shows the "incorrect input". but if the first time i type in the right input it shows "correct"

code:

loop         itries := itries + 1         for count : 1 .. 5             getch (sinput)             put "!"..             inum := strint (sinput)             if count = 1 then                 inum := inum * 10000             elsif count = 2 then                 inum := inum * 1000             elsif count = 3 then                 inum := inum * 100             elsif count = 4 then                 inum := inum * 10             else                 inum := inum             end if             iguess:=iguess+inum             end for     if (iguess div 1000) + (iguess mod 1000) = 368 then     put "correct"     scheck := "g"     else         put " Incorrect input."     end if     exit when itries = 3 or scheck = "g" end loop

I believe that what your problem is is not re-declaring iguess each time you run through the loop. Therefore, what would happen is that iguess would keep increasing, and, after the first run-through, never reach your destination again. Hope that helps.
