ICAO example

[knxknx]

Write your question here.
I am needing help using string input and using the switch statement in order to output the Phonetic version of the string entered. All examples I can find have a form of overloading or array, however, I cannot use that because we have not covered those in my class yet. How can I fix my program in order to output correctly. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Put the code you need help with here.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
int count;
string Phonetic = " ";
string word;
char letter;

cout << "Enter a single word to be converted to the Phonetic Alphabet: " << endl;
getline(cin, word);

for(count = 0; count; count++)
{
letter = count++;
switch (letter)
{
case 'a':
case 'A': Phonetic += "Alpha ";
break;
case'b':
case'B': Phonetic += "Bravo ";
break;
case'c':
case'C': Phonetic += "Charlie ";
break;
case'd':
case'D': Phonetic += "Delta ";
break;
case'e':
case'E': Phonetic += "Echo ";
break;
case'f':

case'o':

break;

Enter a single word to be converted to the phonetic alphabet: cplusplus
Phonetic version of your word is: Charlie Papa Lima Uniform Sierra Papa Lima Uniform Sierra

Here's a simpler one:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <map>
using namespace std;

string ICAO[] = { "Alpha", "Bravo", "Charlie", "Delta", "Echo", "Foxtrot", "Golf", "Hotel", "India", "Juliet", "Kilo", "Lima", "Mike",
                  "November", "Oscar", "Papa", "Quebec", "Romeo", "Sierra", "Tango", "Uniform", "Victor", "Whiskey", "X-ray", "Yankee", "Zulu" };

int main()
{
   map<char,string> M;
   for ( int i = 0; i < 25; i++ ) M['a'+i] = M['A'+i] = ICAO[i];
   
   string word, phonetic;
   cout << "Enter a single word to be converted to the phonetic alphabet: ";
   getline( cin, word );
   for ( char c : word ) if ( M.count(c) ) phonetic += M[c] + ' ';
   cout << "Phonetic version of your word is: " << phonetic << '\n';
}

Your first example was exactly what I needed help with, I just couldn't figure out how to get each character to pull from the string, but that is very clean as well. Thank you so much for your help!
