EDIT
For the posters education
You do
switch (n) {
case 1:
//... Code for n == 1 - If long put into another function. If using local variables put code bloc in braces
break;
case 2:
// Diitto for n==2
default: // No match
// All other values of n not listed above
}
What went wrong
Say you type your menu selection:
2<Enter>
Then the content of the std::cin stream will be:
2\n
When your menu selection runs...
cin >> x;
...it reads a number off the line but doesn't consume any trailing whitespace nor the newline, so the remaining state content could be denoted like this:
\n
Then your code for menu option 2 starts running:
cout << "Total Cost: P";
getline (cin, mystr);
...the getline looks at std::cin and finds the left over \n mentioned above, and says "hey, an empty line - I'll set mystr to an empty string". Notice that it did not do what you'd hoped: namely wait for you to type some more input and read that into mystr.
How to fix it
Before calling getline(cin, mystr) you want to remove the left-over \n typed when entering the menu selection. The code changes for that (adding error handling too):
#include <limits>
...
cout << "Total Cost: P";
std::cin.ignore(std::numeric_limits<streamsize>::max(), '\n');
if (!std::getline(std::cin, mystr))
{
std::cerr << "unable to read mystr\n";
exit(1);
}
std::istringstream iss(mystr);
iss >> cost;
if (!iss)
{
std::cerr << "mystr doesn't contain a valid cost number\n";
exit(1);
}
How you could have found the problem
When you get stuck like this, try adding some "trace" statements to print out the values of variables and find where they differ from your expectation... that can at least give you a better idea how to isolate and describe the problem, and what to google for to fix it.
std::out << "mystr '" << mystr << "'\n";`
Try to use error handling like I've illustrated so the program stops (or prompts for better input) when there's a problem parsing the user's input.

I am trying to build a calculator in C++. I'm new to the program and have to do this for a school assignment, so sorry for my ignorance. English is also my second language so excuse me if I don't make much sense.
Let's say I have two integers A and B for which a user has to assign a value to either add, subtract, etc. How would I then be able add a third integer (let's say X) without all three showing up when I run the program? So instead of having to type a value for A, B, AND X, it only asks to type a value for X?
For example 4 + 5 = 9, but the calculator can also square numbers, so how do I get the option of a user just filling in 4 squared = 16, while still keeping the former code that lets me add and subtract two numbers?
Maybe seeing the code would help understand what I mean? Sorry if I'm confusing.
#include <iostream.h>
#include <conio.h>
int main ()
{
cout << "Calculator [v.1.0]" << endl;
cout << "(c) 2021 <Chayenne van der Erf>" << endl << endl;
cout << "Kies een bewerking en druk op Enter:" << endl;
cout << "1. Optellen 2. Aftrekken" << endl;
cout << "3. Vermenigvuldigen 4. Delen" <<endl;
cout << "5. Kwadraat 6. Worteltrekken" <<endl;
cout << "7. Reciproke 8. Logarithme" <<endl;
cout << "0. Exit" << endl << endl;
int Bewerking;
cout << "Bewerking: ";
cin >> Bewerking;
cout << "" << endl;
switch (Bewerking) {
case 1:
cout << "+";
break;
case 2:
cout << "-";
break;
case 3:
cout << "*";
break;
case 4:
cout << "/";
break;
default: "Invalid Number";
}
cout << "" << endl << endl;
double A, B;
cout << "Enter een waarde: ";
cin >> A;
cout << "Enter een waarde: ";
cin >> B;
int antwoord;
if (Bewerking == 1) {antwoord = A + B;}
else if (Bewerking == 2 ) {antwoord = A - B;}
else if (Bewerking == 3) {antwoord = A * B;}
else if (Bewerking == 4) {antwoord = A / B;}
cout << "" << endl;
cout << "= " << antwoord << endl;
getch();
return 0;
}
Make the variables, and the reading, conditional on the operation.
Example outline:
if (operation takes one input)
{
double x;
cin >> x;
Calculate result...
}
else if (operation takes two inputs)
{
double x, y;
cin >> x >> y;
Calculate result...
}
else if (operation takes three inputs)
{
double x, y, z;
cin >> x >> y >> z;
Calculate result...
}
Print result...
I am trying to create a user-define function in C++ to prevent an endless loop from inputting an incorrect input for a double variable and check if an input is negative or zero. If that's the case the function will go into a do-while loop to ask the user to try again until the value is no longer something other than a double, negative, or zero.
The function fix() is the the user-defined

I removed the issues. You are confusing instances of classes with functions. Functions don't have to be initialized, instances have to if they are outside of the class.
I wrote some comments along the code. It is still not beautiful but at least it works.
string FUNCTION(double) btw. means the function only can or should return a "string". If you are returning nothing the function is written like so void FUNCTION(double).
If your return f.e. a string you have to write something that is receiving the returned string like so:
#include <iostream>
/*
std::string returning_value;
returning_value = FUNCTION(1.0);
*/
//or
std::string FUNCTION(double function_a); //prototype of the function
//you need this if you write the function underneath the main() function
//The main function is returning "return 0" so since "0" is an "int"
//meaning main is always "int main()" btw. because it is a function,
//just not some function but the "main function" thats called by the OS
int main()
{
std::string returning_value;
double a = 0.1; //initializing with 0.1
returning_value = FUNCTION(a);
std::cout << returning_value << std::endl;
//and in both cases the function would look like:
return 0;
}
std::string FUNCTION(double function_a)
{
std::string returning_value_a = "This is a string that will be returned";
if(function_a == 0.1)
{
returning_value_a = "This is another string";
}
return returning_value_a;
}
Your code with the least amount fixed that you got it at least working

You get that error because you try to call a function distance() that is declared in your code by
float distance(float x, float y, float a, float b);
but not defined.
So for the most part I understand what I did wrong, the issue is I don't know how to fix it.
Goal: This is a store management system that must include a menu and inventory management functions that can be manipulated. To do this I used arrays to add the store's items, their descriptions, and their quantities. All the arrays are partially filled to the third element and have a max value of ten elements.
Issue: When the program is run the first time it works and the user can see their inventory, description and quantity. However when they exit to the menu and come BACK to inventory, everything past the third element is cleared. This is due to the declarations initializing the arrays past the third element to 0. How do I fix this to guarantee the user has their inventory saved and can view it upon return?

I included the entire code in case it was needed. The issues are centered around the inventoryMgmt() and addInv() functions.
Thanks in advance for any help!
In theaddInv() all the arrays are local. Once that function is done executing, all local variables are freed up thus resulting in your deletion. Try place them outside your addInv() function:
int main(){
int quantity[10] = {10, 15, 45};
string itemArray[counter] = { "..."};
string descriptionArray[description] = { "..."};
void addInv() {...}
}
I am new to c++ programming, I would like to create a program to find area, volume of shapes I used switch case to select shapes and used else if inside switch for selecting area or volume but it executes only one switch statement.

switch statements can only execute through one case. It can "fall through" if you don't use breaks though. If you mean that it's not executing any of the if statements in the switch statement, it's because you're using the "assignment" operator (=) in the condition. You should be using the "is equal to" operator (==) instead.
So your if statements should be something like this:
if (userchoice == 1) {
// ... do something ...
}
else if (userchoice == 2) {
// ... do something else ...
}
Even if you do that, you have another problem that I notice. You're using the same variable in the condition of the if and switch statements. Doing it that way will make it impossible to execute some routes. You should use separate variables for both and prompt the user for both. Either that, or reassign "userchoice" to be used in the if statements.
Also, you're declaring "userchoice" as a char. If you declare it as a char, you should test for a char in the conditions. If not, declare it as an int.
