what's wrong with it? please help
Hi
This code was working fine until I made some changes to it. Now it doesn't display the name. Below is given output for the student #1, you can see it doesn't display the entered name. It leaves it blank. What's the reason in your view? Please help me with it.
Code:
// student_data_read_practice.cpp
// program which reads data of some students
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <string>
#include <cstring>
using namespace std;
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////
struct Date {int d; string m; int y;};
////////////////////////////////////////////////////
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////
struct Student {int rollno; string sex; string name; float gpa; Date DoB;};
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Student read();
void prnt(Student dummystud);
char grade(float dummyGpa);
int main()
{
Student stud[5];
for(int i=0; i<5; i++)
{
cout << "enter student #" << (i+1) << "'s details below:-" << endl;
stud[i] = read();
prnt(stud[i]);
cout << endl << endl;
}
system("pause");
return 0;
}
