So I don't really understand what you were trying to do but it seems like you wanted your code to output characters for you and you didn't seem to get a hold of the code right. So I would give an example of how to tell your code to output characters for you

#include<iostream>

Using namespace std;

Int main()

{

char str[10];

cout<<"what is your name">>endl;

scanf("%[^\n]s",str);

cout<<"your name is <<str<<endl;< p="">

}

OK so like in the other program where cout<< x >>endl; was used stating int x =60 + 40 and In this program where cout<< 60 +40 >>; was used directly it is still the same it is just that in the previous program x represented 60+40 so there was no need re-writing since it was already stored in the program that that was what x represented so we just used x directly while in this program the program does not have any x stored so instead of writing cout<<x>> we just put in the values for x directly and write cout<<60+40>>. I hope this help you to understand better
