Comparing string of text with if

Question

Is it possible to compare strings with text is c++ using a if function?

Answer 1

I have to say if is not a function, but yes, you can compare strings using if.

Answer 2

#include<string>
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main( ){
string str1 = "hi", str2 = "hi";
if(str1 == str2)
{
cout<< "They are equal";
}
}

Answer 3

Thanks a million Jonathan! Can I ask if the user inputs the string eg yes or no is there a way to successfully check that?

Answer 4

#include<string>
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
int main( ){
string str1, str2 = "hi";
//now I ask user's input, expecting you to enter "hi"
cin >> str1;
//If user enters hi, it prints they're equal. Else, it prints they're different
if(str1 == str2)
{
cout<< "They are equal";
}
else
{
cout<< "They're different";
}
}
