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

Question

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 ;
}

Answer 1

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.

Answer 2

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().

Answer 3

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

Answer 5

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

Answer 6

What is the if statement saying, I haven’t come across strcmp before. lol just trying to learn as much as I can, Thanks
