Thread: Writing to a file

I am doing a challenge that asks the user a name and telephone number and then stores it in a file. This is what I have so far:

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <cctype>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
	fstream dataFile("phones.dat", ios::out);
	if (!dataFile)
	{
		cout << "Error opening the file.";
		return 0;
	}
	const int NAME_LENGTH = 81;
	const int PHONE_LENGTH = 26;
	char name[NAME_LENGTH], phone[PHONE_LENGTH];

	cout << "This program allows you to add names and phone\n";
	cout << "numbers to phones.dat.\n";
	do
	{
		char add;
		cout << "Do you wish to add an entry? ";
		cin >> add;
		if (toupper(add) == 'Y')
		{
			cout << "Pleas enter a name and phone number: " << endl;
			cin.get(name, phone);
			dataFile.put(name, phone);
		}
	} while (toupper(add) == 'Y');
	dataFile.close();
	return 0;
}

I just need help finishing it up.

What problem are you having?

>> cin.get(name, phone);
This line looks suspicious. Do you know how to use cin.get()?
