Expected ';' before string constant

[mr dood]

So i wrote this program to be sent as a practical joke, and ive reduced the errors to this:"Expected ';' before string constant"
there are 3 of them and i dont exactly know what is wrong.
here is the code:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    int name,DateOfBirth,PlaceOfBirth;
    cout<<"Please enter your name:\n";
    std::cin>>name"\n";
    cout<<"Hello, "<<name<<", please enter your date of birth:\n";
    std::cin>>DateOfBirth"\n";
    cout<<"Now enter your place of birth:\n";
    std::cin>>PlaceOfBirth"\n";
    cout<<"Thank you, "<<name<<", your identity has just been stolen.\n";
    cout<<"Have a nice day, formerly "<<name<<".\n";
    cout<<"Program Terminated\n";
    system ("PAUSE");
    return 0;
}

the errors are on lines 8, 10, and 12. your help is much appreciated, thank you.

Those "\n" in the cins are completely out of place. Remove them.

[mr dood]

ok, thank you, but now when i execute the program, i enter my name, and is refers to me as "2".
then when i hit enter, it causes the rest of the dialogue appear automatically. any pointers there?

[helios]

Do you realize you're trying to use an integer to store a name, right? Since you've already included string, why don't you use an std::string?

[mr dood]

jesus, of course! thank you
quick question though, i cant use an integer to store a name, or does an integer have to have numerical value?

[helios]

Well, your question doesn't make much sense, but from what I can tell, you're asking me if an integer must have a numerical value. The answer is yes, but, it's not always safe to access this value:

int a; //a is uninitialized
int b=a;
/*
The behavior here is system-dependent. Some systems let you get away with it,
but Windows XP, for instance, detects this as a runtime error and crashes the
program.
*/

[mr dood]

ok, to rephrase, even though you already answere my question,
"can i store a name with an integer, or does it have to have numerical value?"
that better?

[mr dood]

thank you, by the way

No. You can only store a numerical value in an int.
