You should only do one getline() per loop.

I understand what you're saying, but the program has to do this:

Please enter a password: pass6

Passwords must be at least 6 characters long


Please enter a password: TarrantNW

Passwords must include at least one digit (1-9)


Please enter a password: Tccd03

Thank you that is a valid password

If the password I read in passLength is good (true for both conditions) then it is not false for containDigit. containDigit only runs on the condition of containDigit being false. If it is true, containDigit is not called, and the while condition of the loop exits to main function.
