Try reading up on std::getline() and std::strings.

Hello, learningtocode14.

A program such as the one you described doesn't have to be overly complex. Something like this may serve you well:

#include <string>
#include <iostream>

int main( )
{
    std::string In_Buffer;

    std::getline( std::cin, In_Buffer, '\n' );

    if( In_Buffer.compare( "Yes" ) == 0 )
    {
        // The strings match.
    }

    else if( In_Buffer.compare( "No" ) == 0 )
    {
        // The strings match.
    }

    else
    {
         // The user entered something that was unexpected.
    }
}
