Assuming student::name
is a char
array or a pointer to char
, the following expression
sName==Student.name
compares pointers to char
, after decaying sName
from char[28]
to char*
.
Given that you want to compare the strings container in these arrays, a simple option is to read the names into std::string
and use bool operator==
:
#include <string> // for std::string std::string sName; .... if (sName==Student.name)//Student.name is also an std::string
This will work for names of any length, and saves you the trouble of dealing with arrays.
