Question

I’m attempting to read in user inputted values about put them into a string class array, but I’m getting a BAD EXCESS error, I’m guessing its something really simple that I’m doing wrong. Here is what I got. Any help would be great

int main()
{
   const int SIZE = 5;
   string fruity[SIZE];
   int i;

   cout << "Enter the names of five kinds of fruit:" << endl;
   for(i = 0; i < SIZE; i++)
   {
      cout << "Enter Name of Fruit" << endl;
      getline(cin, fruity[i]);
   }

   cout << fruity[i] << endl;

   return 0;
}

Answer 1

cout << fruity[i] << endl;

This is invalid. Do this instead:

for(i = 0; i < SIZE; i++)
     cout << fruity[i] << endl; 

Because at that point your i will be equal to SIZE, and fruity[SIZE] is invalid.
