Trouble in switching cases of character in c++

Programming

I have been trying to write a simple program to switch cases of given character in c++. Even though the program doesn’t show any errors i am not getting the desired output.
Please checkout the below given program.

       #include<iostream>
        using namespace std;
        int main()
{
        char ch;
        cout<<"Enter the character";
        cin >>ch;
        while(ch!=0)
        {
                if(ch>=65||ch<=90)
                {
                        ch+=32;
                }

                else if(ch>=97||ch<=122)
                {
                        ch-=32;
                }

        }
                cout<<ch;
}

Hi,
First of all their are logical mistakes in your program. The while loop is always true, its an infinite loop. Secondly their is a bug in both the if condition. All the characters you enter will only end up in the first if condition. Make following marked changes to code and update us,

       #include<iostream>
        using namespace std;
        int main() {
        char ch;
        cout<<"Enter the character";
        cin >>ch;
        while(ch!=0)         // <----- Condition always true
        {
                if(ch>=65||ch<=90)  //<-----Bug:  All character end up in this condition. Logic error
                {
                        ch+=32; 
                }

                else if(ch>=97||ch<=122)  //<----- Logic error
                {
                        ch-=32;
                }

        }
                cout<<ch;
}

Thanks for the help.
I have made the necessary change as per your suggestion and it worked!!!
The corrected code is given below.

        #include<iostream>
	using namespace std;
	int main() 
        {
	char ch;
	cout<<"Enter the character"<<"\n";
	cin >>ch;
	while(ch>0)
	{
		if(ch>=65 && ch<=90)
		{
			ch+=32;
			cout<<ch;
			cout<<endl;
		}
		
		else if(ch>=97 && ch<=122)
		{
			ch-=32;
			cout<<ch;
			cout<<endl;
			
		}
		ch=0;
	}
 }
