Okay I am learning C++ using the book: Teach Yourself C++ third Edition.
I am trying to write a simple program, that asks the user for some text then, out puts that text as well as the count of characters used.
My program is using cin.get()
I need to use this so I can see the result of my program and make sure it is working correctly, but I can't seem to get cin.get() working. here is the code:
/*
A C++ program that uses I/O to prompt user for a striong and then display its length
*/
#include <iostream>
#include <string> // library that allows the use of cin.get(); (stops the program) I think
using namespace std;
int main()
{
char i;
double d;
cout << "Please enter some text.";
cin >> i;
cout << i;
cin.get();
return 0;
}
