The program asks the user to enter physician name as array of character,but do not work properly ,only work for single character how can i input array of character for the physician name.
look case 1 on my code.
for( i=0;i<n;i++)
{
cout<<"\nEnter physician "<<i+1 <<" name :";
cin>>phy_name[i];
cout<<"Enter physician "<<i+1<<" id :";
cin>>phy_id[i];
cout<<"Enter physician "<<i+1 <<" specification :";
cin>>phy_spec[i];
cout<<"Enter physician "<<i+1 <<"work experiance :";
cin>>phy_workex[i];
cout<<endl;
}It only works for single character ,if I try to input array of character for example .
enter physician name >S.....it works but for
enter physician name>Sisay ..the loop goes infinite..
how can I solve the problem please correct it by adding some codes for me
