Identifying

Hello.

I am trying to make a program that will start up iexplore and open facebook. But I am having trouble identifying!

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{


	cout << "Select which website you would like to go to.\n";
	cout << "1. Facebook\n";

	char f;
	cin >> f;
	return 0;
}
	


I will also be making it to go to different sites but I don't know what to identify. I know I will be using the if/else.

Example: if (1==1)
else ()

Being f=go to youtube and d being go to facebook. But I don't know how to identify 1 with www.youtube.com. I am just learning :).

Someone help?

if you do it with numbers as input - like 1 for Faceboook, 2 for Myspace , and so on - you may better use the switch-case-control

switch(number)
{
case 1:
           //Do your code for Facebook here
break;
case 2:
          //Do your code for Mysapce here
break;
default:
            //Do You Code For Anything else here
};


and what do you min, with identifying?...

what references/tutorials are u using for learning c/c++?...
Hmm... K.

For do your code here I would put:
system("start c:\\progra~1\\intern~1\\iexplore.exe http://facebook.com\n");
??

And what I mean by identifying is I thought I would have to assign 1 to youtube. So like int 1 = youtube and like int 2 = facebook so I could make if/else statements so like if (1==1) then if they selected 1, it would go to like youtube. But I realized now I would have to put something like if (Input == 1) Or something. I am not good with these if/else statements right now. :P

I am going to try that code out. Thanks.

Edit:
error C2065: 'number' : undeclared identifier
error C2050: switch expression not integral
error C2065: 'default' : undeclared identifier
