Remember array subscripts start from zero, not one.
for (x=0; x<2; x++)

Line 9 is after the for loop has terminated. At that stage x will have the value 2 and a[2] is the 3rd element, that is it's outside the array.

Use braces { } if you want more than one statement to be controlled by the for loop.

you need to add braces to for loop if it has more than one statement concerning it....

	for(x=0;x<2;x++)  //as Chervil said above
      {    // see like this
	cin>>a[x];
	cout<<a[x];
         }  // an opening and a cloasing brace
