equals

[kmtompkins]

the code doesn't recognize equals in if (ans.equals("good"))

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
	string ans;
	char name[50];
	cout << "hello what is your name\n" << endl;
	cin >> name;
	cout << "nice to meet your " << name << endl;
	cout << "how is your day " << name << endl;
	cin >> ans;
	if (ans.equals("good"))
	{
		cout << "thats good" << endl;
	}
	else
	{
		cout << "thats bad" << endl;
	}
	return 0;
}
//should run like...
//hello what is your name
//kyle
//nice to meet your kyle
//how was your day kyle
//good
//thats good

//or...
//hello what is your name
//kyle
//nice to meet your kyle
//how was your day kyle
//bad
//thats bad

// if (ans.equals("good"))
if( ans == "good" )

And, make name a string too.

//char name[50];
string name ;
