Getting chars from cin.

[Sh0es]

I'm trying to extract characters from a file in a project I'm working on. The only problem is that there doesn't seem to be any method in ifstream (or istream for that matter) that returns chars. What am I overlooking?

You can use the cin.get() function, with the exception of doing it like this:

ifstream infile;
/...
char a = infile.get()

This above is an example about it also.
