Use strcpy(myvalue, "Some text");
This pass the second value to the first variable. And this works with
spaces. If the second is "Hello  marvellous world", myvalue will be the
whole phrase, not only the first word.
cin >>myvalue; would put in myvalue "Hello", only. Then, for input from
keyboard you need use cin.getline(char array, size of the char array);
cin.getline(myValue, 20);
**input: Hello baby** will put in myValue "Hello baby".
