-> I am pretty new to C++, compiling, etc., I really want to learn this
-> stuff... I am trying to figure out how to validate input
-> from a user to
-> make it accept only positive numeric values. I was using a
-> while loop to
-> check it, but when the user enters an alpha character, I get
-> stuck in the
-> loop of death, I am sure many of you have experienced this.
-> I asked my
-> instructor how to do this, but he said that he wasn't sure.
-> would an if
-> statement nested in a while loop solve my problem??
