Although there are some way you have in Turbo C++ to input a full string.
The simplest you'd find is:

(Toggle Plain Text)

char *str;
str = new char; // for avoiding comipler runtime errors

Try

(Toggle Plain Text)

str = new char[BUFFERSIZE];

instead.

I'm not sure how many of those will work, as we've already established he's got a pre-standard compiler. Those methods may differ in parameters, semantic function, or may even be absent entirely.

I have worked on Turbo C++ in my school days too. As far as i remember, they all work on it.
