Recognizing Spaces

Hi,
I need to have my program recognize the space key. For example if I typed in "Hello Everyone", my program reads back "HelloEveryone". This is a simple example of what I am doing:

#include <iostream.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
while(1){
char letter;
cin>>letter;
cout<<letter;
}
system("PAUSE");
return 0;
}

Thanks

It is an example, so it is not what you're really doing? I mean, this example is probably representive, but the should be found in the real code.

In general, checking if letter is the space is quite easy:

if (letter == ' ')

Look into cin.get() and cin.getline. Depending on what you're trying to do one of these should work for you.

Code:

---

int main()
{
char myText[256];

cin.getline(myText, 256);

cout << myText << "\n";

return 0;
}

---

Code:

---

int main() {
    char s[101];
    cin.getline(s, 100);
    for (int i=0; i < 100; i++) {
        if (s[i] == ' '){
            continue;
        } else if (s[i] == '\0') {
            break;
        } else {
            cout << s[i];
        }
    return 0;
}

Quote:

---

char s[101];
cin.getline(s, 100);

---

Should be:

char s[101];
cin.getline(s, 101);

No need to drop the null character cin.getline will take care of that.

Read the post again. I think this is the old newbie question: Why does cin ignore spaces? He/she is trying to output "Hello Everyone," rather than "HelloEveryone."

cin.getline will solve this.
