macOS Problem with getline function.

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

int main ()
{
	int age; 
    string zipcode,name,address;
	
    cout << "Please enter your name\n";
    getline(cin,name);
    cout << "Please enter your age\n";
    cin >> age;
    cout << "Please enter your zipcode\n";
    cin >> zipcode;
    cout << "Please enter your address\n";
    getline(cin,address);
    
    
    cout << "Your details : "; 
    cout << name;
    cout << age << " years old."; 
    cout << address;  
    cout << zipcode "\n";
    
    return 0;
}

This is the error I get when run in terminal

address.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:
address.cpp:28: error: expected `;' before string constant (line 27 is cout << address;)
make: *** [address] Error 1

So the error message says the problem is in line 28 -- and you've identified line 28 (since you know which one is line 27.) Does anything look wrong on that line?

    cout << zipcode << "\n";

You need to chain the cout operators.

You need to chain the cout operators.
