It seems that it's not separating the word within the space.
Trying to separate the words in between, and stored it in first and second.
cin >> name; //input name
stringstream file (name);
getline(file,first, ' '); //seperate the name with the first name and last name using space
getline(file,second, ' ');
Replace
cin >> name;
with
getline(cin, name); //input name
cin >> reads only upto the first space. You would have realized this if you done a cout << name; to check what's getting read - this is the first step of debugging.
When you read the initial input with cin >> name; that only reads up to the first white space character.
You then try to break that into two pieces at white space, which it doesn't contain.
Easy way:
cin >> first >> second;
Alternatively, if you start with std::getline(cin, name); instead of cin >> name;, then the rest should work correctly.
