private:
int itsAge;
string itsName;
// char itsName[ 80 ];
};

I know that, I should use ofstream &....
but there is a problem:
"itsName" is a "string or char*" & It can not be written in desired
file...
Actually it is a char array, and nothing else.
Should I write a self writting method for this class to write itself
to a file or what?

Decide on a file-format for writing you class, then implement

std::ostream& operator(std::o stream& o, const A& a);

so that it writes the members of A in the correct format. For more
information search for serialisation, also take a look in the FAQ:

In Accellerated C++, the author recommends that in a header file one should not declare using std::string, using std::vector etc instead one should directly specify the namespace specifier in code. for example, this is bad practice: header.h #include <string> using std::string;

Is it correct and safe to compare a string object with "", a pair of quotation marks quoted empty string?If the string object: s = ""; does s contain a single '\'? Is it better to use std::string::size or std::string::empty to deal with this condition? Thank you. string s = ""; if (s == ""); if (s.size == 0); if (s.empty());

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
