Shortest path string

#1

I tried to do the homework which was to add code to show the shortest path but it is not working can you help.
#include
using namespace std;

int main(){
char ch;
ch=cin.get();

int x=0;
int y=0;

while(ch!='\n'){
	if(ch=='n' or ch=='N')
		y++;
	else if(ch=='e' or ch=='E')
		x++;
	else if(ch=='s' or ch=='S')
		y--;
	else
		x--;
	ch=cin.get();
}
cout<<"The coordinates are: "<<x<<" "<<y<<endl;

while(ch!='\n'){
    	if(x>0){
    for(int i=0;i<x;i++)
        cout<<"E";
    }
else if(x<0){
    for(int i=0;i>x;i++)
        cout<<"W";
}
else if(y>0){
    for(int i=0;i<y;i++)
        cout<<"N";
}
else{
    for(int i=0;i>y;i++)
        cout<<"S";
}
ch=cin.get();
}

}
