  // Example program
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
class exc{
    
int main()
{
 
        string name;
        bool a=true;
        string ju="ad";
        cout << "What is your name? ";
        cin>>name;

         if(ju==name)
     {
         cout << "\nHello, " << name << "!\n";
     }
         else
     {  cout<<"not acceptable";
     }
 
    }
};
main is the entry point into your program, it should not go in a class.
I suggest you work through the tutorials on this site.
