No need to that a way.
Here's how you could do that:

char str[5][50];
for(int i=0; i<5; i++)
{
     cin >>  str[i];
}

Hey, I asked the same thing yesterday! If you look a bit further down the board there’s a thread called 2d array of strings. You should find what you’re looking for there hopefully!
