char * c++ example

Example 1: how to create an array of char in c++

// strings and NTCS:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
  char question1[] = "What is your name? ";
  string question2 = "Where do you live? ";
  char answer1 [80];
  string answer2;
  cout << question1;
  cin >> answer1;
  cout << question2;
  cin >> answer2;
  cout << "Hello, " << answer1;
  cout << " from " << answer2 << "!\n";
  return 0;
}

Example 2: c++ declare char

// syntax: 
// char <variable-name>[] = "<string/char-you-want-to-store>"; 

// example (to store 'Hello!' in the YourVar variable): 
char YourVar[] = "Hello!";
