Thread: Need help please, something's wrong with the string

It kinda getting really annoying when i had done all the research and in theory, this should be working, (but it did not)

Code:

#include <iostream.h>
#include <string>

int main()
{

	using namespace std;

	string s1, s2, s3;
	char input1[20], input2[20];

	cout<<"Input 1"<<endl;
	cin>>input1;

	cout<<"Input 2"<<endl;
	cin>>input2;

	s1 = input1;
	s2 = input2;

	s3 = s1 + "." + s2;

	cout<<s3;
	return 0;
}

For some reason, when i run it, the program gives me this message:

Code:

error C2679: binary '<<' : no operator defined which takes a right-hand operand of type 'class std::basic_string<char,struct std::char_traits<char>,class std::allocator<char> >' (or there is no acceptable conversi
on)

Can anyone please point out what i did wrong. Thanks a lot
