Question

I am working on a C++ program, where a user puts in a notation a playing card and the output is the full name of the card.(ex: KH = King of Hearts)

I have most of it working but I want to have an error come up when the user puts in the wrong info and then loop back to the original question. Am I setting it up wrong?

Pasted below is my code

#include<iostream>

#include<string>

using namespace std;

int main()

{

string suite;

string rank;

string card;

//Prompt user for abbreviation name card

cout << endl;

cout << "Please enter a playing card notations: ";

cin >> card;

cout << endl;

//length of card spot

if(card.length() == 2)

{

rank = card.substr(0,1);

suite = card.substr(1,1);

}

else if(card.length() == 3)

{

rank = card.substr(0,2);

suite = card.substr(2,1);

}

else

cout << "There is an Human input error" << endl;

return 1;

//if statement of suite and output of suites

if(rank == "1") {cout << "Ace ";}

if(rank == "2") {cout << "Two ";}

if(rank == "3") {cout << "Three ";}

if(rank == "4") {cout << "Four ";}

if(rank == "5") {cout << "Five ";}

if(rank == "6") {cout << "Six ";}

if(rank == "7") {cout << "Seven ";}

if(rank == "8") {cout << "Eight ";}

if(rank == "9") {cout << "Nine ";}

if(rank == "10") {cout << "Ten ";}

if(rank == "J") {cout << "Jack ";}

if(rank == "Q") {cout << "Queen ";}

if(rank == "K") {cout << "King ";}

if(rank == "A") {cout << "Ace ";}

//if stament of rank and output of rank

if(suite == "H") {cout << "of Hearts" << endl;}

if(suite == "D") {cout << "of Diamonds" << endl;}

if(suite == "S") {cout << "of Spades" << endl;}

if(suite == "C") {cout << "of Clubs " << endl;}

cout << endl;

return 0;

}
