SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on combining two strings in C++ using the push_back and append methods. The provided code snippet aims to output "Barry Allen" by first adding a space character to the secretID string and then appending the lastName. The correct implementation involves using secretID.push_back(spaceChar) followed by secretID.append(lastName) to achieve the desired output.

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

int main() {
   string secretID = "Barry";
   string lastName = "Allen";
   char spaceChar = ' ';

 /* Your solution goes here  */

   cout << secretID << endl;
   return 0;
}

I don't understand this. i need help
i'm suppose to out put "Barry Allen" but what do i push back?

Retype and correct the code provided to combine two strings separated by a space. Hint: What type of parameter does push_back expect?

Code:
   secretID.push_back(spaceChar);
   secretID.push_back(lastName);

You can use the following code.

Code:
 secretID.push_back(spaceChar);
 secretID.append(lastName);

The [m]push_back[/m] method adds a character to the end of the line, while [m]append[/m] adds another string.
