Thread: VERY simple mistake

Code:

//Write a program that calculates the amount of days
//from day "X" to day "Y"

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int Day_X; //first day to be compared to
int Day_Y; //second day for the amount of days in between
int Month_X;
int Month_Y;
char January[31];
char February[28];
char March[31];
char April[30];
char May[31];
char June[30];
char July[31];
char August[31];
char September[30];
char October[31];
char November[30];
char December[31];

int main() {
cout << "DAY CALCULATING PROGRAM" << endl;
    cin.get();
cout << "Please give the Month of the starting day" << endl;
  cin >> Month_X;
  cin.get();
cout << "Please give the Day of the month" << endl;
    cin.get();
      cin >> Day_X;
cout << "Please give the Month of the ending day" << endl;
   
      cin >> Month_Y;
cout << "Please give the Day of the month" << endl;
     cin >> Day_Y;
     cout << "The amount of days between " << endl; 
     cout << Day_X << Month_X << endl;
     cout << "AND" << endl;
     cout << Day_Y << Month_Y << endl;
     
    
    
    cin.get(); //perhaps implement a "Yes, No" option
    return 1; //later make it return a value 
}

Okay so when I run this thing, it allows me to give input all the way up until it asks for Month_X. It just terminates the whole function/program. WHY IS THIS DOING THAT? I'm probably missing something so minute. Anyway, is the setup for my program okay? I'm doing a program in which calculates the amount of days from ...well just read the program.

Code:

cout << "Please give the Day of the month" << endl;
    cin.get();
      cin >> Day_X;

change it around

Code:

cout << "Please give the Day of the month" << endl;
  cin >> Day_X;
   cin.get();

I think the correct way to do it would be

Code:

cout << "Please give the Day of the month" << endl;
cin >> Day_X;
cin.ignore();

cin.ignore() should 'ignore' the last character input
