Hi, I'm having some difficulty with the getline command:

Ok so im trying to write a simple program that stores user imput and I'm having problems with the getline command. The code is as follows:

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <ostream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    int x;
    string p1;
    ofstream Prod ( "Example.txt", ios::app );

do {


    cout<<"Input#1 "<<"\n";
    getline (cin, p1);
    Prod<< p1 <<"\n";

    cout<<"Input#2"<<"\n";
    cin>> p1;
    Prod<< p1 <<"\n";
    cin.ignore();

    cout<<"Input#3"<<"\n";
    cin>> p1;
    Prod<< p1 <<"\n";
    cin.ignore();

    p1 = ();
    cout<<"Repeat operation?:\n";
    cout<<"1)  Yes\n";
    cout<<"2)  No\n";
    cin>> x;
    } while (x != 2);
    
    cin.get();
}

When I run the program, it works until it asks me if I want to repeat the operation. If I choose to do so, it will cout Imput#1 without allowing me to input any information, and skips to Input#2 but this time allowing to type something.

Any help is much appreciated! Thank you.

You are so close you even used the right method on the other cin. Can you tell me what:

Code:

cout<<"Input#3"<<"\n";
cin>> p1;
Prod<< p1 <<"\n";
cin.ignore();

has in it that this code doesn't?

Code:

cout<<"Repeat operation?:\n";
cout<<"1)  Yes\n";
cout<<"2)  No\n";
cin>> x;

cin.ignore(); Thanks a million the program works great now...
