std::string ed;
std::cout << "Encrypt or Decrypt? (e/d)\n" << std::endl;
std::cin >> ed;
std::cout<<std::endl;
if (ed == "e")
{
std::string ch;
std::string crypt;
std::cout << "Type, and I shall encrypt.\n";
std::getline(std::cin, ch);
std::cout << "\n enter your keyword. \n";
std::cin >> crypt;
I am trying to write a simple encryption program. It all works like a charm except the input. I heard that inputting a textfile might actually work easier, but I cannot simply give up on this. So when I run this program it just skips the input for "ch", if I declare a char x before, at least gives me an inputline:
char x;
std::cin >> x;
std::getline(std::cin, ch);
This however swallows the first char of input, so the User would have to start every input with an empty character. Is there any way to solve this issue?
