Xcode entering input error help please

You are mixing up two different ways of getting user input.

1. getline -- a standard <stdio> function which reads user input and a return;

2. cin -- a C++ <iostream> function which reads user input and a return.

See http://crasseux.com/books/ctutorial/getline.html and http://www.htmlhelpcentral.com/messageboard/showthread.php?4359-C-Tutorial-1-cou t-cin for the proper way to use either one of them; you cannot use both in the same command.

Those two links were the very first hits on a search for "getline tutorial" and "cin tutorial".

Apologies about my 'getline' mishap -- it's a valid cin function after all.

Some further research led me to this: cin.getline(dest, count) reads up to count characters and ignores everything that follows. Perhaps your NAME_LENGTH value is 4? In that case, cin.getline is done right after you entered "Juan", and the hard return is left dangling for the next command. (See http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/iostream/istream/getline/ for a better description.)

I found it's commonly suggested to add an 'ignore' right after each getline, to prevent any unwanted characters in the next input line.
