Hello,
I am brand new to programming and am currently attempting to learn
C++.
I am unable to get the below program to evaluate the string that is
entered for the name. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong and
if it is even possible to run an "if" statement and make it evaluate
a string?
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{ string name;
cout << "Please enter your name ";
cin >> name;
if (name == 'John')
cout << "Your name is John ";
else
cout << "Your name is not John ";
return 0;
}
