How to cin to a vector

Question

I\'m trying to ask the user to enter numbers that are put into a vector, then using a function call to count the numbers, why is this not working? I am only able to count t

Answer 1

One-liner to read a fixed amount of numbers into a vector (C++11):

#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 
#include 

int main()
{
    const std::size_t LIMIT{5};
    std::vector collection;

    std::generate_n(std::back_inserter(collection), LIMIT,
        []()
        {
            return *(std::istream_iterator(std::cin));
        }
    );

    return 0;
}
