Answer 3

You can use a trick for that. Instead of cin you can do this. (if that's what you mean)

string pass="";
char inp;

do{

//get a new character every time the loop runs
inp=cin.get();

//if Enter is pressed exit the loop
if(inp=='\n')break;

//filling the password incerted with the new character
pass+=inp;

//setting the cursor position at the start of the line
cout<<"\r"<<endl;

//replacing the characters that are followed with an asterisk
for(int i=0;i<pass.length();i++)
cout<<'*'<<endl;

}while(true);

...

You can use a backspace action too but I haven't anything that can help in my mind right now
