making "int " is replaced by char , you can get show the password in the form of alphabets

instead of int use char for entering both int and char data. and u can do this very easily.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;1
int main()
{
char c,str[20];
int i=0;


while((c =getch())!='\n') {
str=c;
putch('*');
}
}

this program catches the text u type either in int or char. and will be stored in str. each time after accepting the character it will display '*' to hide the characters entered.
