i didn't use a temp variable and it should print a tree... i didn't test it but it should do the trick

i made a couple of changes to the code... try that and let me know if it works

if you don't put a temp variable that starts equal to lines and decrements after every go around you will always move...

you need to either declare a fixed size char array... i.e. str[100] or use dynamic memory and a deep copy using strcpy or stricpy. If you use the fixed size array you can cin >> str and all will be...
