How do I store a user input into an array?

[YourBoyDanny]

How do I store a user input into an array? Please try to explain simply as I've only just begun learning how to code.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{

    string word4;


    cout << "Please enter a country: " << endl;
    cin >> word4;

}

For example if someone wants to put Sierra Leone, it would only store Sierra.

This question has nothing to with arrays.

If you want to read an entire line into a single std::string, rather than just space-delimited parts of it, use the getline() function:

Normally you access an array by an index.
Lets say you have an array of int like this:
int array[5];
Now you store the value 1 at the first location like this:
array[0] = 1; Please note that the first index is 0 and the last index is 4.

Getting user input that includes whitespace requires using getline. For C strings (char arrays) or std::string.

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

int main()
{
   const int SIZE { 80 };

   char country_cstr[SIZE];

   std::cout << "Enter the country name: ";
   std::cin.getline(country_cstr, SIZE);

   std::cout << "You entered: " << country_cstr << "\n\n";

   std::string country_str;

   std::cout << "Enter the country name: ";
   std::getline(std::cin, country_str);

   std::cout << "You entered:" << country_str << '\n';
}

Enter the country name: United Kingdom
You entered: United Kingdom

Enter the country name: Sierra Leone
You entered:Sierra Leone
