Question about a loop freezing, or stopping
 

I'm working on this project due by 4AM and my loop keeps stopping after following part of a loop. I've checked the code several times, but it just freezes inside the checkstuff function. Can someone tell me how I can break from that fucntion or loop and continue looping through a text file please?

The loop that calls the function is the loop I want to get back into after the function is called and executed, any suggestions?

Here is the code:

//Step 1: Setup and Define the variables

#include <iostream>

#include <fstream>

#include <cstring>

#include <cctype>

using namespace std;

  

 void checkstuff( char course[], char desc[], char due[], char request[]);

int main() {

        //Local variables

        char course[70];

        char due[70];

        char desc[70];

        char fname[70];

        char request[25];



        strcpy(request, "cs161");

        /* To be un commented when rest of program is working okay

        

        //Step 2: Welcome the user and get the file name and class request

        //Welcome message and file request

        cout << "Welcome to the program, this program will read assignments from a file for you based on what class you're looking for.  But first, what file would you like to look in?" << endl;

        cin.get(fname, 70, '\n');

        cin.ignore();

        

        //Prompt for the class they are looking for and store it in request

        cout << "What class are you looking for?" << endl;

        cin >> request;

        cin.ignore();

        cout << endl;

*/

         //Step 4: open file and check to see if it's open

        ifstream filein;

        filein.open ("crazy.txt");



        if (filein) {

        

                //Step 5: Read in first line and check for end of file

                filein.get(course, 70, '\n');

                filein.get();



                while (!filein.eof()) {

                        

                        //Step 6: Read in second and third lines and check it to see if it matches the class request

                        filein.get(due, 70, '\n');

                        filein.get();

                        filein.get(desc, 70, '\n');

                        filein.get();

                        

                        //Send it to the function

                        checkstuff(course, due, desc, request);

                        

                        //Step 7: Continue checking file

                        filein.get(course, 70, '\n');

                        filein.get();

                }

        }

        filein.close();

        

        //Step 8: End of file has been reached, say good-bye

        cout << "The end of the file has been reached, thanks for using this program and good-bye!" << endl;

        

        return (0);

} 



//This function checks the class request and echo's if it matches

 void checkstuff( char course[], char due[], char desc[], char request[]) {

 

        //Step 1-function: check the request for a match

        if (strcmp(course, request) == 0) {

        

                //Step 2-function: echo the result

                cout << course <<endl;

                cout << due << endl;

                cout << desc << endl;

                cout << endl;

        }
