Whats wrong with the code?
My friend sent it to me.
works for him

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() 
{
	const int max_items = 10;

	string inventory[max_items];
	int numitems = 0;
	inventory[numitems++] = "sword";
	inventory[numitems++] = "shield";
	inventory[numitems++] = "Mana Potion";
	cout << "Your items: " << endl;
	for (int i = 0; i < numitems; i++)
	cout << inventory[i] << endl;
	cout << "You trade your sword for a great sword!" << endl;
	inventory[0] = "great sword";
	cout << "You're items: " << endl;
	for (int i = 0; i < numitems; i++)
	cout << inventory[i] << endl;
	cout << "You found an item! It's a Health Potion!" << endl;
	if (numitems < max_items) 
	{
		inventory[numitems++] = "Health Potion"; cout << "You took the item!" << endl;
	}
	else 
	{
		cout << "You're carrying too many items." << endl;
	}
	cout << "Your items: " << endl;
	for (int i =0; i< numitems; i++)
	cout << inventory[i] << endl;
	return 0;
}

I works for me too. I didn't spot any error but you should use std::vector instead of string array. Because if numitems>=max_items, the program will crash

vector<string> inventory; // create vector of strings
inventory.push_back("sword"); // add item to vector
// ...
// get vector size (instead of numitems) : inventory.size();
for(int i=0;i<inventory.size();i++)
    cout <<inventory[i]<<endl;
// ...

I don't see any issue with the code either.
What problem are you having?

"doesn't seem to work" is not very informative. Does it compile? or it crashes when you run it?

Dosnt compile in visual studio..console never comes up and it says would u like to run previous program

You didn't include the string header.

#include <string>

#include <string>
