need help with if statements

[klay2]

I think the problem is that I'm comparing strings in the if statements

  #include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
string username;
string password;

int loggedin = 0;

int errorcode = 0;
int profileselected = -1;

string profiles [100][3];

profiles[7][1] = "b";
profiles[7][2] = "a";

while(loggedin == 0)
{
if(errorcode == 1) cout << "Invalid username/password!" << endl;

cout << "Username: ";
cin >> username;
cout << "Password: ";
cin >> password;

	for(int i = 1; i < 101; i++){
		
		if(profiles [i][1] == username){
			if(profiles [i][2] == password){
				loggedin = 1;
				profileselected = i;
			}
		}
	}

	if(profileselected == -1) errorcode = 1;
	system("ClS");
}


}

You have a problem on line 30. The index of an array starts with 0, hence:
for(int i = 0; i < 100; i++){

I know but I'm developing this with my friend, (who ironically is always trying to be efficient) and he doesn't like that.

oh nvm you have to do that don't you, I never noticed that.

You can use && instead of two if statements. Also, once you find the right profile, break out of the loop to avoid unecessarily checking all the other profiles:

if(profiles [i][1] == username && profiles [i][2] == password){
	loggedin = 1;
	profileselected = i;
	break;
}
