EDIT:

further information, I take data from standart input

cin >> name
mysql_query ( …, ? )

if I write like “insert … ( name ) “, name will be treated as string not as variable name .

Answer 1

Take a look at the documentation.
It says:

int mysql_query(MYSQL *mysql, const char *stmt_str)

Description

Executes the SQL statement pointed to by the null-terminated string
stmt_str. Normally, the string must consist of a single SQL statement
and you should not add a terminating semicolon (“;”) or \g to the
statement. If multiple-statement execution has been enabled, the
string can contain several statements separated by semicolons.

I guess this example could be helpful
