Concantenation Help?

[Illusionust]

So, I'm trying to complete some beginner challenges. And I have hit a problem. Here it is..

both[i] = name[i] + " has eaten " + pancakes[i] + " pancakes";

That is all you need to know, but if you need more, tell me. How could I concatenate these?

That is not all I'd need to know.

That could very well be good syntax depending on what types the variables are.

name is a String. pancakes is an int. both is a string

Why don't you tell us what error you are getting and save us the trouble of having to figure it out ourselves?

You need to convert your "int" to a string or c-string as there is no operator that takes type of int.
