Thread: Multiple variable cin line

is it possible to do a multiple variable cin line
e.g.

user types:
west 1200

it activates an if statement for the string if the first variable is set to 'west' and then moves the character that many paces

this is for a test-based rpg, sorry if this is the wrong board

like this?

Code:

string direction;
int paces;
//...
cin >> direction >> paces;
if(direction == "west") {
  //move paces
}

I was just about to post that, I am way too slow But anyway, is this going to be like the game Zork, b/c if it is make sure to send me a copy!!! Zork is one of the best games ever, I would easily choose it over GTA: Vice City.
