cin

How can I get my code to detect me hitting the enter key? I tried using cin.get() without any success. Also when the enter key is pressed, I'd like to change a boolean x from true to false. Why doesn't this work? if (cin.get() == '\n'){ x = false; } I'd like to end my loop (and thus and the program) when the enter key is pressed (see code below) All code (simple rock, paper, scissors game): #include <iostream> #include <string> #include <cstdlib> //random #include <time.h> //pc time using namespace std; int main() { string rpsYou; string rpsCom; string winner; bool status = true; while (status

With below code, if I enter a letter or a really long number, the while loop will go haywire, why is that? void main() { int n{ 0 }; while (true) { cout << "Enter a number: "; cin >> n; cout << n << endl; } } The problem is that operator>> is expecting to draw an integer off of the input stream, but there is something else sitting there (the non-integer that the user typed). This sets an error state on the input stream. In this state, the cin >> ... construct no longer blocks for input because there's already something (not an integer) in the stream, so you see your loop go haywire. What needs

I am going through C++ Primer (5th ed). In section 1.4.4, there is the following example: #include <iostream> int main() { // currVal is the number we're counting; we'll read new values into val int currVal = 0, val = 0; // read first number and ensure that we have data to process if (std::cin >> currVal) { int cnt = 1; // store the count for the current value we're processing while (std::cin >> val) { // read the remaining numbers if (val == currVal) // if the values are the same ++cnt; // add 1 to cnt else { // otherwise, print the count for the previous value std::cout << currVal << "

I have a program in which there is a code which looks something like this: int Element[15]; cout << "Enter name/symbol of the Element: "; cin >> Element; and I want the program to exit as soon as he presses 'esc' key. And also the user should not have to press the 'enter' key after pressing the 'esc' key. So how to do that?? gthacoder In Windows you can do it using Windows API. GetAsyncKeyState(VK_ESCAPE) helps you to check if Escape is pressed. You can try something like this: #include <windows.h> #include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { int Element[15]; HANDLE h; do { h =

The following code runs and stores input in the vector as it should but loops indefinitely listening for input. The intent is to take a string of ints from one line of input, separated by spaces, and store them in a vector. int main(int argc, char ** argv){ int input; vector<int> intVector; while (cin >> input) intVector.push_back(input); //print vector contents copy(intVector.begin(), intVector.end(), ostream_iterator<char>(cout, " ")); cout << "\n"; return 0; } I want to somehow add a simple, extra condition in the while loop that checks for the end of the line so that it doesn't just keep

Recently I faced a problem But before that I will tell you what is the reference Consider this program #include<bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std; int main() { vector<string> RS; string word; while(cin>>word) RS.push_back(word); } This code stores each word of spaced string in vector But the problem comes here ..... #include<bits/stdc++.h> using namespace std; int main() { vector<string> RS,FS; string word; while(cin>>word) RS.push_back(word); while(cin>>word) FS.push_back(word); } Here the motive is to store the string words of first line in RS and of second line in FS vectors But it doesn't
