An Issue in my Tic Tac Toe game code

Question

I made a Tic Tac Toe game in C++. I did not know how to output a proper board, so I made a grid with an array labelled 1-9 to let the user punch in the number to tell the computer where to put his shot. The second player is the computer. I'm very happy since it's my first working program, but there's a problem with the code, it sometimes, not always, outputs an 'Invalid' before exiting, I have used the word to tell the user when he is entering an invalid number. Could someone please help me understand why this is happening and the logic in my code, because after some time, even I'm confused about what I wrote. Very grateful, thanks.

Your error is due to this line:

if (entered >= 1 || entered <= 9)

You need to use && instead of ||.
