Assume that scotus is a two-dimensional character array that stores the family n

Question

Assume that scotus is a two-dimensional character  array that stores the family names (last names ) of the nine justices on the Supreme Court of the United States. Assume no name is longer than twenty characters . Assume that scotus has been initialized in alphabetical order. Write some code that will print each to standard output , each on a separate line with no other characters .

MY CODE

for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++)
{
int j = 0;
while (j < 20)
{
cout << scotus[i][j];
j++;
if(scotus[i][j] == ' ')
{
cout << endl;
       break;
}
}
cout << endl;
}

Expected Output:

Actual Output:

Explanation / Answer

This condition in your code is wrong :   if(scotus[i][j] == ' ')

Character arrays end with '' when string is complete, so change it to if(scotus[i][j] == '' )

Also you can directly write the code as:

for (int i = 0; i < 9; i++)
{
   cout << scotus[i] << endl;
}

as cout, stops printing when '' is found
