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

[fr4234]

Well I do it like this:

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:

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

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.
