Password

[aanthonyz]

I wanna create a password for my code so when you type it you keep going and if its wrong it says "incorrect". I wanna do this for three thing...

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>
#include <string>


using namespace std;

int main(void) {

cout << "Loading..." << endl;
Sleep(3000);
string password;
cout << "Please enter Primary password" << endl;
getline (cin, password);

if(password == "1")
{
string answer;
system("CLS");
}
cout << "Checking... " << endl;
Sleep(2000);
cout << "Please enter secondary password..." << endl;
getline (cin, password);

Code:

if(password == "2")
{
string answer;
system("CLS");
}
cout << "Password Accepted!" << endl;
Sleep(5000);
}

Code:

if(password == "1234")
{
string answer;
system("CLS");
}
cout << " Nice job getting this far..." << endl;
Sleep(2000);
cout << " One more thing before opening..." << endl;
Sleep(2000);
cout << " Que es el nombre de mi perro? " << endl;
getline (cin, password);

if(password == "shadow")
{
string answer;
system("CLS");
}
cout << " Only one person should have gotten this far... " << endl;
Sleep(2000);

All help would be appreciated

You could "#include <string>" and use the function "strcmp();" For example:

Code:

# include <iostream>
# include <string>

int main () {

char str1[5] = {'p', 'a', 's', 's'};
char str2[5];

std::cout << "Enter password: ";
std::cin >> str2;

if (strcmp(str1,str2)==0) {
std::cout << "Welcome user..." << "\n\n";
} else {
std::cout << "Intruder alert!" << "\n\n";
}

return 0;
}

"strcmp(str1,str2); tests the strings for equality. It returns a negative number if str1 is less than str2, or returns zero if the two strings are equal, also it returns a positive number if str1 is greater than str2" -
