Problem with strings...
Im very new to the whole C/C++ Things, but I am very good at Java so things arent that hard..
Um when I ask the user to put in their adress, and then I want it to print out the adress they entered it will only print everything they type in till a space.... char name[20], color[19], adress[20];
int x;
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
int n[5];
int *prt;
prt = &n[0];
*prt = 3;
printf("What is your favorite number?");
scanf("%d", &x);
if(x>5)
{
printf("The number you chose is greater than 5!\n");
}
printf("\nWhat is your favorite color?");
scanf("%s", &color);
printf("\nWhats your Adress?");
scanf("%s", &adress);
printf("%s\n", adress);
printf("%d\n", *prt);
system("PAUSE");
return EXIT_SUCCESS;

You could simply use the gets() method, instead of using scanf(). I never liked using scanf() for strings.

The gets() doesnt seem to work for me? It gives me an error on the stdio.h ? I am just replacing the scanf("%s", adress); to gets("%s", adress); Right?
