How to read string variable with spaces in an array?

int stuS,courseS; cout<<" stu:"; cin>>stuS; cout<<"Course :"; cin>>courseS; string course [courseS],names[stuS]; double grade[courseS][stuS]; cout<<"course"; for(int i=0;i<courseS;i++) { cin>>course[i]; } cout<<"names:"; for(int i=0;i<stuS;i++) { getline(cin,names[i]); } cout<<"grades"; for(int i=0;i<courseS;i++) { for(int j=0;j<stuS;j++) cin>>grade[i][j]; } I've included <cstring> & <string> ,but it didn't work,

Creating an array of non-constant size is ambitious. Could you try to use pointer instead? Or vector header. // pointer ex. string* names = new string[stuS]; // vector ex. vector<string> names (stuS);

Are you getting any compiler errors?

And the names are read without spaces? Or where exactly don't you have spaces?

Martin Taylor Maybe these strange arrays are dangling pointers? I don't know, too.
