Thread: Palindrome - Press enter to continue...

Hi,

The part of the Palindrome is working but i want to my program to print "Press ENTER to continue" in the end of each cycle.

It is working but i don´t think that is the best way.

Code:

 // Problem here - I Want to press enter to continue what is the best way ?
        cin.get();
        cout << "Press enter to continue";
        cin.get();

FULL CODE

Code:

using namespace std;


string invertePalavra(string s) {
    return string(s.rbegin(), s.rend());
}


void ficha1_ex8() {
    string word;
    cout << "Write  \"end\" to exit\n";
    while (true) {
        cout << "Write a word: \n> ";
        cin >> word;
        if (word == "end")
            break;
        string inv = invertePalavra(word);
        cout << "word -> " << word << endl;
        cout << "Reverse word -> " << inv << endl;


        if (word == inv) {
            cout << "palindrome \n";
        } else {
            cout << "Not a palindrome\n";
        }


        // Problem here - I Want to press enter to continue what is the best way ?
        cin.get();
        cout << "Press enter to continue";
        cin.get();
        
    }
}


int main(int argc, char** argv) {
    ficha1_ex8();


    return 0;
}

It depends on what you mean by best. The way that you've presented is standard and portable.

Have you thought about not doing it? That would be my real suggestion. There should be nothing wrong with the program ending, closing the window, after you type "end" because you should have seen the words reversed.
