unhandled exception
I am trying to write a simple program that reverses the letters of a word entered by the but after the enter key is pressed I get this error message
uUnhandled exception at 0x00122c44 ... : 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0xccccccccser
when the error message pops up the istream library opens and an arrow points to
this line
*_Str++ = _Traits::to_char_type(_Meta); // add it to string how can I fix this

Looks like you're trying to make a c style string, but didn't quite make it. All you did was make a pointer of type char, and then try to assign some input to it. I'd recommend to just use the string class, considering this is c++ you're using
I tried defining 'word' as a string not a char and I got even moor errors and still got the unhandled exception message
that got rid of the unhandled exception but this line became problematic
int size = strlen(word)-1;
so I changed it to
int size = word.length;
that didnt help
int size = strlen(word)-1;
so I changed it to
int size = word.length;
that didnt help
It's .length(). If you leave out the parentheses, it thinks you're trying to access a variable, which is likely private
I just added the parentheses the program ran and then caused assertion failure saying string subscript is out of range
