String Compactor. Write code that will read in a string and then print out every other character of the string.

Question

Write code that will read in a string and then print out every other character of the string. You should use getline to read in the string... it may have spaces.

Samples:

1. Input of "Hello" should produce "Hlo"
2. Input of "Hi there" should produce "H hr"
3. Input of "What" should produce "Wa"

Note: You do not have to actually change the string... it is fine to just print the correct characters.

Code:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()

{

//YOUR_CODE

}

Answer 1

using namespace std;

#include <iostream>

#include <string>

main()

{

string inbuff;

cout << "Input :>";

getline(cin,inbuff);

int iStrLen = inbuff.length();

for (int iLoop=0; iLoop<iStrLen; iLoop+=2)

{

cout << inbuff[iLoop];

}

}
