@MEDHIR For the old style C-Strings, @sreya 's method is correct; I'd suggest just one minor change:
instead of cin, when inputting strings, use gets() function. cin stops at the first blank space, gets() does not.
similarly, for outputting, use puts()
gets() and puts() require header file <stdio.h>
(and, if you're curious, are pronounced "get-ess" and "put-ess")

however, C++ also has a useful String Class - a derived datatype.
//declare it as:
string spam;
//input as
getline (cin, spam);
//output using any method you want
now, word of caution. string class is not supported by some compilers, especially old ones that do not follow the latest C++ standard. (e.g. I know Borland Turbo to not support the string class)
