Sentences in Strings
So I'm fairly new to C++ and I'm having a bit of trouble getting a full sentence in a string. The program works just fine when I enter just one word without any spaces, but when I enter two words with a space between them, the window just closes instead of continuing on with the program. Any help as to why this is happening and how I can fix it would be awesome.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
string a;
cin>>a;
cout<<a<<endl;
//rest of the code doesn't matter.
return 0;
}
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
string a;
cin>>a;
cout<<a<<endl;
//rest of the code doesn't matter.
return 0;
}
Well as you said its "fine when i enter just one word without any spaces" I imagine you're not using an IDE like Dev-C++ which doesn't keep the console open after execution.
You're problem is to do without how you're getting your input - you're mixed buffered/unbfuffered input.
Change the line

Change the line
cin>>a; to getline(cin, a); and you program should work fine.
