cin problem II SIMPLE

Another question: how can I use cin with strings?

Code:

---

string data;
cin>>data;  //gives an error

If you want to use strings then you need to use the proper STL iostreams library:

Code:

---

#include <iostream> /* No .h extension! */
#include <string>
using namespace std;

---

if you want to be able to get more than one word(like if somebody typed "hello world" hello would be the only one gathered), do this

Code:

---

        string str;
        getline(cin,str);
        cout << str;

---

but the user has to press twice on the return button
