Now I'm sure to all you long time C++ ediotrs out there this question will be obvious but I just can't figure it out.  here goes.  I want a program that asks for your name and then I want it so if you enter   John   as your name it will say thanks and if you enter anything else it will say    Nope     I have tried and tried but to no avail.  Here is what I have


 


#include <iostream.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main()
{
unsigned short int name,john;
cout << "Please enter your name: ";
cin >> name;


 


if (name=john)
     cout << "\nThanks!\n";


else
     cout << "\nNope!\n";


system("PAUSE");
return 0;
}


 


As of now it says   thanks   no matter what.  I have tried and tried but nothing will work and I'm sure I did something stupid to make it not work.  If you could rewrite what I did wrong or just write a brand new code it would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,


J
