Thread: My name program (need help)

You need to use strcmp( ) to compare char arrays. Also, you don't need the else if, just else.

Code:

if( strcmp( name, "tim" ) != 0 )

I dont get what it does but i put in what u said and this is waht happened.

Code:

#include <iostream.h>

int strcmp();
int program();
int main()

{
	char name[20];
	cout << "            Input name for identification." << endl;

	cin >> name;

	if( strcmp( name, "tim" ) != 0 )

	{
		cout << "                 Name not Registered." << endl;
		return 0;
	}
	else
	{
		(name == "tim");
		program();
	}

	return 0;
}
int program()
{ 
	cout << "            Welcome To the Restricted Zone." << endl;
	
	return 0;
}

errors:
(17) : error C2660: 'strcmp' : function does not take 2 parameters

> (17) : error C2660: 'strcmp' : function does not take 2 parameters
Use
#include <string.h>

To get the prototype for strcmp()

> int strcmp();
This zero-parameter version is no good
