Explanation / Answer

double read_double(char*message)
{
double dnum;
do
{
    cout << message;
    cin >> dnum;
    if (cin.fail())
    {
     cout << endl << "Enter anumber " << endl;
     flush(cin);
    }
else
    {
     break;
    }
}
while (1);
return dnum;
}

int main()
{
do
{
choice = -1;
cout << endl;
cout << "Conversion of inches,feet to cetimeters"<< endl;
cout << endl;
cout << "1 - Convert inches and feet to centimeters"<< endl;
cout << "0 - Quit" << endl;
cout << endl;
cout << "Enter choice : ";
cin >> choice;
if (cin.fail())
   {
    cout << endl << "** Enter a number**" << endl;
    flush(cin);
   }
if (choice == 1)
{
int inputok;
do
{
   inputok = 1;
   foot = read_double("Enter length in feet: ");
   inches = read_double("Enter inches as well: ");
   cout<<endl;
   try
   {
    if(inches < 0 || foot < 0)
    throw -1;
   }
catch (int error)
{
cout << "Negative foot/inches nor Alphabetic lettersnot accepted. Enter again."
<< endl << endl;
inputok = 0;
}

} while (inputok !=1);
centimeters = (foot * 30.48f) + (inches * 2.54f);
cout << foot << " foot and " << inches << "inches equals "
<< centimeters << " centimeters." << endl;
} //<- end if
