I don't understand where the const char is coming from. As mentioned in the title, the error I'm getting is " invalid operands of types 'const char[13]' and 'char*' to binary 'operator+'". Am I using strcat incorrectly? (BTW I'm barely starting to learn C++, so I'm sure it's not as well written as it could be... just trying to understand the fundamentals) Code: #include <...

if you use std::string then you can use the + operator to concatenate strings. If you use char* or char[] you cannot. I recommend you start small and read up on std::string. Here is a simple example to get you started Code: #include <string> #include <iostream> int main() { std::string foo("hello"); std::string bar("world"); std::cout << foo << " " << bar << ...
