c++ array problem input and sub menus, assignment is due really soon

@seeplus has pretty much done it for you, but it may be beyond a beginner. If you don't understand it, you should ask.

std::getline will read a whole line, then you can do stuff with the string it returns. But for numbers, you could just use std::cin >> phoneno, then check if the number is too large.

Tried to follow your advice but still cant figure out how even when i tried which takes me so long, sorry for timing reasons

#include <iostream>   
#include <string>   
using namespace std;
using std::getline;


class Record 
{
private:
    std::string en;
    std::string em;
    int pn;

public:
    std::string getName() const { return en; }
    std::string getEmailAddress() const { return em; }
    int getPhoneNo() const{ return pn; }
    void setName(std::string value) { en = value; }
    void setEmailAddress(std::string value) { em = value; }
    void setPhoneNo(int value) { pn = value; }
    void addRecord(Record rec) 
    {
        if (lastRecord < MaxRecords) 
        {
            records[lastRecord] = rec;
            ++lastRecord;
        }
    }
    int MaxRecords = 20;
    int records[];
    int lastRecord = 0;
