Can someone tell me why this isn't working or help me correct it?

This is the start of a c++ project I'm working on, but I keep getting errors that I don't know how to patch. Help is desperately needed. int a, b; string name ; cin >> a; cin >> name; cin >> b; int sum = a + b; int difference1 = a - b; int difference2 = b - a; int product = a * b; int quotient1 = a / b; int quotient2 = b / a; if (!stricmp(name.c_str(), "plus")){ cout << "sum" << endl ; }

it's strcmp() not stricmp() and on sololearn it is in the cstring header #include <cstring> also if either a or b are 0 you'll receive an error.

Xan Oh ya, forgot about that one. Guess that's why C++ isn't my primary lang. lol So, maybe just needed the correct header then? Cause, the code works for me with strcmp() and <cstring> on SL, but I haven't tried the other typical headers that include strcmp(), stricmp().

Yes, header problem, you were spot on with that. Also they were printing "sum" (the string) rather than sum (the variable).

ChaoticDawg No. stricmp() is correct, the i stands for insensitive, as in case-insensitive.
