using namespace std;

int main()
{
	double strength;
	string material ;
	string A = "ABC" ; // Not sure why you initialized them to 0. 
	string B = "DEFG" // Wouldnt you want A,B to be equal to the alphabet you want to display?
	string response ;
	
	cout<<"Welcome to xxx Calculator"<<endl;

	cout <<"Please enter strength of material needed : " ;
	cin >>strength;

thanks really appreciate your help :)

i didnt know i need to put " " for the string part, thanks alot

initially i put zero because i thought we needed to set some value to it as i see in some of the problem

Initializing is good and you should do it, but your problem was that you never gabe A and B a value, so when you did this - material = A ; Nothing really happened =)
