enter value for coding

[sirsyltan]

some where in main:

char value;
char* sname;
sname= new char[20];
for(int i=0;i!=19;i++)
{
cin>>value;
sname[i]=value;
}


I need a stopping case when user press enter array get closed and add '\0' at the end but how to do that?

[rmxhaha]

if you want to detect an enter then there are better ways to do that

you could

string name;
getline( cin, name );

or

char name[200];
gets( name );

'\0' are automatically added with these methods
