Program Skips Second Input

[rosscoder101]

My code skips the second input and uses the second digit from the first input as the input for the second input. Any idea how to fix this?

#include<iostream>
#include<string>
#include<sstream>


using namespace std;


string number1;
string number2;

int main()
{
for (int j = 0; j<100; j++)
   {
    cout << "Please enter a two digit number: ";
    cin >> number1[j];
    cout << "Please enter another two digit number: ";
    cin >> number2[j];
   }
}

Your code engenders undefined behavior. number1 and number2 are empty. You cannot access elements of those strings that are not there.

How do I fix it?

What exactly are you trying to accomplish? Repeatedly storing different values in the same strings doesn't seem like it would be particularly useful.

I am using it to troubleshoot a small aspect of a larger and more useful program.
