This code should allow the user to type in a word in x, but should automatically go on to the next operation when the length of x reaches 8. I can't compile it due to an error on the WHILE line, how can I solve it ?Code:#include <iostream.h> int main() { char x; while(strlen(x)) < 8 { cin >> x; } return 0; }
> while(strlen(x)) < 8
while(strlen(x) < 8 )
Code:char text[100]; do { cin.width(100); cin >> text; }while(strlen(text) < 8);
7 C:\3.cppCode:#include <iostream.h> int main() { char x; while(strlen(x) < 8) { cin >> x; } return 0; }
passing `char' to argument 1 of `strlen(const char *)' lacks a cast
Damn...
strlen expects char*, not char
This might do what you are looking for:
Code:char str[9]; for(int i = 0; i < 8; ++i) cin >> str[i]; str[8] = '\0';
The word rap as it applies to music is the result of a peculiar phonological rule which has stripped the word of its initial voiceless velar stop.
Thanks... But then how do you use Strlen ?
In the above example, you could use strlen(str) since str is a char*. You just can't use it on a char (since its length is always 1).
