[BUG] Input validation #189
Reference in New Issue
Block a user
Delete Branch "%!s()"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Originally created by @shrivalidutt on GitHub (Oct 8, 2024).
Description
The input validation logic in placex() and placey() is somewhat convoluted and can lead to an infinite loop if the user does not enter a valid position.
Expected behavior
If the user enters an invalid position, they should be prompted to enter a valid number without causing the program to get stuck in an infinite loop.
Actual behavior
leads to an infinite loop if the user does not enter a valid position.
Possible fix
adding input validation
Steps to reproduce
Execute the compiled program When prompted, enter an invalid move, such as a number outside the range of 1-9 or a letter.
the program keeps prompting for input without handling invalid cases, it may cause an infinite loop if the input is never valid
Context
While trying to check what the output will be in case an invalid input is provided i came across this issue
