limit item entry C++ - c++

Question

need to limit the ammount of items that can be entered into the array to 5. Tought i would use a do while loop but it just continues even after the 5 items have been entered. Any help would be appreciated
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <string>
#include <conio.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <array>
using namespace std;
string sItems[4] = {};
string sChoice = "";
int iItemPrice[4] = {};
int iNumOfItems = 0;
int iMenuChoice = 0;
int iCount = 0;
int main()
{
cout << "--------- Welcome to the program ---------\n\n Please pick from an option below: \n 1: Enter new items \n 2: Change item prices \n 3: Input sold items \n 4: Receipt for previous items sold\n ";
cin >> iMenuChoice;
switch (iMenuChoice)
{
case 1:
{
do {
cout << "--------- ENTER NEW ITEMS ---------\n\nPlease enter the item Name: ";
cin >> sItems[iCount];
cout << "\nPlease enter the price of: " << sItems[iCount] << "\n";
cin >> iItemPrice[iCount];
cout << "\nWould you like to enter another item? Y/N \n";
cin >> sChoice;
if (sChoice == "Y" || sChoice == "y")
{
++iCount;
++iNumOfItems;
}
} while (sChoice == "Y" || sChoice == "y" || iNumOfItems < 5);
cout << "you have entered the maximum ammount of items";
}
}
_getch();
return 0;
}

Answer 1

The loop condition sChoice == "Y" || sChoice == "y" || iNumOfItems < 5 means:
Loop as long as user answers "Y"
But at least 5 times regardless of user answer
If you want some other logic, like loop up to 5 times, then you can reflect that in the code.
Also check for failures. If you input a character when cin expects a number, it will enter a failed state and all subsequent input attempts will fail.
do {
cout << "--------- ENTER NEW ITEMS ---------\n\nPlease enter the item Name: ";
cin >> sItems[iCount];
cout << "\nPlease enter the price of: " << sItems[iCount] << "\n";
if (!(cin >> iItemPrice[iCount]))
break;
cout << "\nWould you like to enter another item? Y/N \n";
cin >> sChoice;
++iCount;
++iNumOfItems;
} while ((sChoice == "Y" || sChoice == "y") && iNumOfItems < 5);
And increase the array size from 4 to 5 if you want to support 5 items:
string sItems[5];
int iItemPrice[5];
