Im trying to print a string to console in c++ console application.
void Divisibility::print(int number, bool divisible)
{ if(divisible == true) { cout << number << " is divisible by" << divisibleBy << endl; } else { cout << divisiblyBy << endl; }
}i have the correct includes etc, this error i believe is just that i simply dont know how to print to console in c++ yet and this i guess isnt the way to do it
EDIT: sorry forgot to mention divisiblyBy is the string

yes it's possible to print a string to the console.
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{ string strMytestString("hello world"); cout << strMytestString; return 0;
}stdafx.h isn't pertinent to the solution, everything else is.
0All you have to do is add:
#include <string>
using namespace std;at the top. (BTW I know this was posted in 2013 but I just wanted to answer)
1"Visual Studio does not support std::cout as debug tool for non-console applications"
- from Marius Amado-Alves' answer to "How can I see cout output in a non-console application?"
Which means if you use it, Visual Studio shows nothing in the "output" window (in my case VS2008)
you need to include the needed headers first which are:
1- #include<iostream>, so that you can read and write.
2- #include<string>, so that you can use (string) class.
3- using namespace stdor
you can just write
std::cout
