#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
char username[50];
char password[50];
char passConfirm[50];
cout << "Create a username: ";
cin >> username;
cout << "Create a password: ";
cin >> password;
cout << "Confirm your password: ";
cin >> passConfirm;
if (password == passConfirm) {
cout << "Password confirmed";
} else {
cout << "Password denied";
}
}
trying to see if user input is the same as another user input but I don't know how to do it.
I tried that in order to find if password is the same as passConfirm but it won't work and I don't know what to do.
CodePudding user response:
char[]
is the C way to do strings. If you're going that way, you need to strcmp
to compare them.
#include <cstring>
...
if (std::strcmp(password, passConfirm) == 0) { ... }
But a much better, more C -friendly way to do this is to use std::string
.
#include <string>
...
std::string password;
std::string passConfirm;
Then the ==
comparison would work as you expect.

string is a vector of chars, therefore it is not necessary to create an array of chars
