Thread: Stop from bypassing string input?

Alright I have these basic lines of code:

Code:

cout << "Enter a Number:  ";
    cin >> number;

    cout << "What is your name: ";
    cin.getline ( name, 300, '\n' );

My program stops after the first cout line and waits for input, I put the info in and hit enter, it then prints out the next cout line but does not stop to get the input from the user.

What do I need to do here to get it to stop and wait for the input of the name?

Thanks

Works perfectly,

Thanks a lot for the quick reply.
