Question

1. Write a function that prompts the user to enter his or her first name and last name, as two separate values. This function should return both values to the caller via additional pointer (or reference) parameters that are passed to the function. Try doing this first with pointers and then with references. (Hint: the function signature will look be similar to the swap function from earlier!)

Answer 1

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

void getName(string &first, string &last) {
    cout << "Enter first name: ";
    cin >> first;
    cout << "Enter last name: ";
    cin >> last;
}

int main() {
    string first, last;
    getName(first, last);
    cout << "Your name is " << first << " " << last << endl;
    return 0;
}
