Using the online compiler zybooks, I keep getting an infinite loop in my switch statement. Does anyone have any experience with what might be causing the problem through this compiler? Thank you very much.

total instruction count, and clock cycle rate */

float cpi_i;

int instr_i;

/* prompt for # instruction classes & clock cycle rate of machine */

printf("Enter number of instruction classes");

scanf("%d", &number_classes);

printf("Enter the frequency of the machine (GHz)");

scanf("%f", &clock_rate);

/* for each instruction class, prompt for CPI of class and instruction count */

scanf("%f", &cpi_i);

printf("Enter instruction count of class %d (billion) ", i);

scanf("%d", &instr_i);

/* update values in appropriate glocal var's */

total_cycles += cpi_i * (float)(instr_i);
