Chapter 3, Problem 1RQE

Assume the following variables are defined:

int age;

double pay;

char section;

Write a single cin statement that will read input into each of these variables.

Explanation of Solution

“cin” statement:

“cin” is the standard input stream that is used together with the extraction operator “>>” to process the formatted input.

Syntax:

Syntax to read input by using “cin” statement:

cin >> variable1 >> variable2;

• In the above statement, “cin” is a predefined keyword and “variable” is the name of the variable to read value from the user.

Single “cin” statement to read input:

/* input statement to get three input using single line */

cin >> age >> pay >> section;

The above statement is used to get three inputs “age”, “pay” and “section” from the user by using a single “cin” statement.
