Answer 1

After every cin call using insertion operator. You must call cin.ignore() if you want cin.getline () to work.

As cin>> leaves behind a '\n' character when you press enter and because of that when you use getline () it picks up the \n and takes no input as it finds \n in the input stream which is the default delimiter.

So you can either do cin.ignore () after every cin>> or simply set a delimiter character cin.getline ()
