You should really really buy a book and learn C++ from the basics. Even if people already told you so, you don't seem to see the benefits from it. Of course, you'll spend some time doing only this (and not going any further in your project) but on the long term (and even shorter) you'll be far more efficient.
C++ is not a language where you can guess what to write and expect it to work. Even if your program compiles, you'll still have a lot of runtime problems (crashes, memory leaks, ...) and if you don't understand what you are doing, that will be a hell of a job to fix them.

And another point: people on the forum will get bored seing you posting 10 questions a day. And what will probably happen is that the quality of the answers will decrease because you don't make any effort to learn and expect us to do the job for you.

What's the problem with you stupid dork ?

not only you spam the forum with your minimalistic questions, but you delete it once you get an answer, so that no one here can see what was asked at first.

dude ! this is not a chat, it's a forum. if you can't wait, go somewhere else. Sleepy | :zzz:

I know others have said it, but let me just add something

If you're too stubborn to buy a book when you plainly know zero about C++, and you're too stupid to use google, then no matter how many people here answer your basic entry level questions, you will never, ever learn C++. Learning involves more than asking people to do stuff for you. It involves literacy, it involves understanding the need to study, and in this case, it involves being able to search for yourself. You are honestly telling me that a google search doesn't turn up the correct syntax for a switch statement ?

You just posted a question, which can be an example for "How not to post a query in the forum". Please read How to get an answer to your questions[^] before you post further doubts. Also see if it would be plausible for you to buy a very basic C++ book.
