Answer:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{ int cutoff = 5;
int tries = 0;
int u_input = 0;
while (0 == 0)
{ if (tries == cutoff)
{
cout << "You have hit the limit of tries ";
return 0;}
else {
cout << "Enter a postive number";
cin >> u_input;
if (u_input < 0)
{
tries++;
cout << "Not a postive number, Try again !";
}
}
}
return 0;
}
Explanation:
create a variable cutoff of type integer for maximum allowed user inputs.
create a variable tries of type integer for number of user inputs.
create a variable u_input of type integer for user inputs.
create an infinite while loop with termination condition 0==0. Inside loop write an if statement where if tries==cutoff return 0 (to terminate program) else ask proceed to ask user for a positive integer number as input.After input check if input number is positive.If input number is positive terminate else increase tries variable value by one ask user to input again
