Hey I want to be able to put a movie title in the is more than one world and it goes crazy when i do, if you run my program and enter one word when it asks for the movie title it will work fine. but when u enter a more than one word (using space) it goes crazy and ends the program. what do i need to do.
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <ctype.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
char movie[50];
int adult_ticket_price, child_ticket_price;
int adult_ticket_sold, child_ticket_sold;
int percentage_of_gross_amount_donated;
cout <<"Enter The Movie Name: ";
cin >> movie;
cout << "";
cout <<"Enter The Adult Ticket Price: $";
cin >> adult_ticket_price;
cout << "";
cout <<"Enter The child ticket price: $";
cin >> child_ticket_price;
cout << "";
cout <<"Enter The Number of Adult Tickets Sold: ";
cin >> adult_ticket_sold;
cout << "";
cout <<"Enter The Number of Child Tickets Sold: ";
cin >> child_ticket_sold;
cout << "";
cout <<"Enter The Percentage of Gross Amount Donated: ";
cin >> percentage_of_gross_amount_donated;
cout << "";
cout <<"Number of Tickets Sold: " << ((adult_ticket_sold)+(child_ticket_sold))<< endl;
cout <<"Gross Amout is: $" << (((adult_ticket_sold)*(adult_ticket_price))+((child_ticket_sold)*(child_ticket_price))) << endl;
cout <<"Amount Donated is: $" << ((((adult_ticket_sold)*(adult_ticket_price))+((child_ticket_sold)*(child_ticket_price)))*((percentage_of_gross_amount_donated)*(.01)));
cout <<" "<<endl;
return 0;

don't be so impatient. I'm watching TV (House) at the moment
>> cin >> movie;
don't use that. use getline() function instead
when move is std::string
or when movie is char array

cin.getline( movie, sizeof(movie)); Last edited by Ancient Dragon : Mar 27th, 2007 at 11:04 pm.

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <ctype.h>
using namespace std;
int main()

char movie[50];
float adult_ticket_price, child_ticket_price;
float adult_ticket_sold, child_ticket_sold;
float percentage_of_gross_amount_donated;
cout <<"Enter The Movie Name: ";
cin.getline( movie, sizeof(movie));
cout << "";
cout <<"Enter The Adult Ticket Price: $";
cin >> adult_ticket_price;
cout << "";
cout <<"Enter The child ticket price: $";

try setw() or setprecision() in <iomanip> header file. There may be other ways I don't know. I like sprintf() for that better because its easier to use.

here is an example. but maybe someone else can tell you how to do it with c++ instead of sprintf
float n = 123.456789; char buf[20]; // format for 2 decimal places sprintf(buf,"%3.2f", buf); cout << buf;

Since you're using C++, might as well stick with
setwAnd hasn't anyone mentioned code formatting yet? You need to indent your code so we can follow it.
