c++ Structures export data for specific name, country, last name

Well I do it like this:

Code:

---

char choose[1];
        do {
               
                       
                        cout << "New check? Y/N \n";
                        cin >> choose;
                        if (_stricmp("N", choose) == 0)
                        {
                                break;
                        }
                        char name_for_check[10];
                        cout << "\n Name for check:";
                        cin >> name_for_check;

                        for (i = 0; i < n; i++)
                        {
                                if (strcmp(array[i].first_name, name_for_check) == 0)
                                {
                                        cout << array[i].first_name << " ";
                                        cout << array[i].last_name << " ";
                                        cout << array[i].country << endl;
                                }
                        }


       

        }
        while (_stricmp("Y", choose) == 0);
        system("pause");
}

The code is working but after I run it it show this message:

Quote:

Run-Time Check Failure #2 - Stack around the variable 'choose' was corrupted.

As choose is defined to be a c-style string and not a char, then

Code:

---

cin >> choose;

---

is going to treat choose as a c-style array and terminate it with a null. This makes the string at least 2 chars but you have only allocated space for 1!

This is why using c-style strings in a c++ program is a bad idea Get your teacher to explain using the c++ string type.
