This code works, but for some reason you have to press enter twice, and that stinks, is there any way not to have to press enter twice?Code:#include <iostream> #include <string> using namespace std; int main(void) { string name; cout << "What is your name?" << endl; getline(cin,name,'\n'); cout << "Your name is " << name << endl; return 0; }
Code:#include <iostream> #include <string> using namespace std; int main(void) { string name; cout << "What is your name?" << endl; cin >> name; cout << "Your name is " << name << endl; return 0; }
no no no, when you do it that way you can ONLY enter one word until you hit a space. with my way you can enter as many words with as many spaces but you must his enter twice, i wanted to know how to get around hitting enter twice.
use cin.getline(), or the tried and true, (and reliable) fgets().
Code:#include <cmath> #include <complex> bool euler_flip(bool value) { return std::pow ( std::complex<float>(std::exp(1.0)), std::complex<float>(0, 1) * std::complex<float>(std::atan(1.0) *(1 << (value + 2))) ).real() < 0; }
using the dogs way you can enter multiple spaces into your variable. you can do that wiht any cin!
fgets()? i've never heard of that before but okay
also cin.getline() is used for character arrays not strings

Ahhh..."strings". I thought you meant char array "strings". Well fgets() won't work there!
Code:#include <cmath> #include <complex> bool euler_flip(bool value) { return std::pow ( std::complex<float>(std::exp(1.0)), std::complex<float>(0, 1) * std::complex<float>(std::atan(1.0) *(1 << (value + 2))) ).real() < 0; }
There is still a getline free function.
Code:#include <iostream> #include <string> int main() { std::string line; std::cout << "Enter your name: "; std::getline(std::cin, line); std::cout << "Your name is " << line << std::endl; return 0; }
well I guess no one reads previous posts anymore. The way Silent did it works fine EXCEPT for the fact that I already did it that way (read the first post of this thread). I am trying to find a way that works so you don't have hit the enter key twice.
Hi U,
I did only press enter once. I don't what you are taking about but according to your title
>>>how to input two names same string \
I think you what these
Thanks
Code:#include <iostream> #include <string> using namespace std; int main(void) { string name1 = "",name2=""; cout << "What is your name?" << endl; cin>>name1>>name2; cout << "Your name is " << name1<<","<<name2<< endl; return 0; }
that seems to work fine, but I was wondering if there was a way to use the getline(cin,name) function so that you only have to press enter once to go to the next line.
It only requires one press of enter for me.
