You re not including the standard  lt string gt  header   You got  un lucky that some of its pertinent definitions were accidentally made available by the other standard headers that you did include     but operator lt  lt  was not    https   stackoverflow com a 20937531 560648

If you want to use std  string reliably  you must  include  lt string gt

It looks like you re comparing strings incorrectly  To compare a string to another  use the std  string  compare function   Example       while   wrong  lt  MAX WRONG   amp  amp   soFar compare THE WORD     0

[c++] no operator "<<" matches these operands
