Help with strings

[Nobody/Anonymous]

I need some help with stringing...it seems that "string" itself isn't a keyword and i tried including string

Maybe others; but here is just one way...

// Creates a file and prints the string you type into it.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream> 
#include <cstring> // ... For 'strcmp' ect
#include <cstdlib> // ... For system("PAUSE")

using namespace std;

int main()
{
   ofstream outfile; 

   char word[200]; // Char array name 'word'
                  
   outfile.open("file.txt", ios::out); 

   do
   {
   cout << "Type a word.  ";
   cin.getline(word,200);
   outfile << word <<endl;
   }
  
  
   while(strcmp(word, "" ) != 0); // strcmp compares two strings: Uses <cstring>
   outfile.close();

    system("PAUSE");
   return 0;
}

Another way ?...

Smaller and simple.

// Creates a file and prints the string you type into it.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream> 
#include <cstring>
#include <cstdlib>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
   ofstream outfile; 

    string myBff; // Enter single line with no spaces...             
     outfile.open("file.txt", ios::out); 

   cout << "Type a word:  ";
   cin >> myBff;
  
      outfile << myBff <<endl;
      outfile.close();

   system("PAUSE");
   return 0;
}
