When posting code, please use code tags. Go Advanced, select the formatted code and click '#'.

essai=essai+1; // incrementation du nombre d'essai
}

shouldn't the closing brace go with the while part of the do loop?

You are incrementing essai but not testing to see if 10 or more entries have been tried. Shouldn't this test be part of the while clause?

If you have to loop until a 'k' is entered, your while condition doesn't seem correct?

Also you are describing an entry that is not a 'k' as greater and an entry that is a 'k' as less?? Shouldn't the condition be > for Plus and < for Moins?
