Jump to PostI assume you mean the console screen.
First you have to figure out the screen width in characters. The old MS-DOS window was 80 characters wide, but that is no longer true. Once you know the screen width then the rest should be easy math. Something like this:
Does it have to be in C++? Can you use external libraries?
no external libraries. just with normal C++..

{
std::string name = "Daniel";
const int ScreenWidth = 80;
while( name.length() > 0)
{
int center = (ScreenWidth-name.length())/2;
cout << setw(center) << " " << name << '\n';
name = name.substr(1);
}
