Thread: Runtime error cannot figure out

Hi everyone,

Following is the C++ code that am stuck with at runtime:

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std ;


class gradebook

{
      
      public:
             
             void displaymessage (string nameofcourse)
             
             {
                  
                  cout << "Welcome to the Gradebook for\n" << nameofcourse ;
                  
             }
             
} ;


int main ()

{
    
    string nameofcourse ;
    
    cout << "Please enter the course name\n\n" ;
    
    getline(cin, nameofcourse) ;
    
    cin.get () ;     
    
    gradebook mygradebook ;
    
    mygradebook.displaymessage (nameofcourse) ;
    
    return 0 ;
    
}

When I compile(Dev C++ compiler) and run, "Please enter the course name" (without quotes) gets printed however the displaymessage function does NOT get printed. I've deliberately kept the parameter list name to nameofcourse at both places to avoid confusion.

Please help

Maybe the output would be easier to read if you wrote:

Code:

cout << "Welcome to the Gradebook for " << nameofcourse << "\n";

run your program from command line window
