Jumble Word(Leaving end letters)

[Fran]

Hi I am trying to get the words given by the user to jumble and it is not working for me. What am I missing?
Here's my code

#include <algorithm>
#include <ctime>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

int main()
{
    srand(time(0));

	std::string userInput;
    std::string word = userInput;

	std::cout << "Enter a word to jumble \n";
	std::cin >> userInput;

    if(word.size() > 3)
    {
        std::random_shuffle(word.begin() + 1, word.end() - 1);
		std::cout << word << '\n';
    }
	
   
	system("pause");
	return 0;

Thank you

You may want to print out the values of both word and userInput after you retrieve userInput from your user.

I would also make the definition of std::string word = userInput come after cin >> userInput

@ rcast, that worked, thanks.

I'm having trouble not having it use the same number more than once;

#include <cstdio>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
#include <ctime>
using namespace std;

#define ENTER 13

int main(int nNumberofArgs,char* pszArgs[])
{
    int c;
    int I = 0;
    int ran;
    char ch;
    char word[1024];
    char jumble[1024];

    cout << "Enter a word to jumble(Press 'enter' to quit): ";
    for(int i = 0;i < 1024;i++)
    {
        ch = getch();
        c = ch;
        if(c == ENTER)
        {
            break;
        }

        word[i] = ch;
        cout << word[i];
        I++;
    }
    cout << endl;

    srand((unsigned)time(0));
    for(int i = 0;i < I;i++)
    {
        ran = rand() % (I);

        jumble[i] = word[ran];
        cout << word[i] << "  " << jumble[i] << endl;
    }

    cout << "Jumbled word: ";
    for(int i = 0;i < I;i++)
    {
        cout << jumble[i];
    }

    cout << endl;
    system("PAUSE");
    return 0;
}
