How to make the cin command ask a question in the output?

Question

I tried using cout but it didnt work

Answer 1

this is kind of badly worded....
cout << "enter num"; cin >> num;

if you are dealing with objects and overloaded the >> operator.
cin >> mObj;
this overload could have cout statements that prompt the user to enter values for all of that objects member variables.

hope this helps!!

Answer 2
