How to take this kind of a STDIN inputs in c++?

Question

In lots of hackathon they provide testcases. So in those test cases they provide inputs in different ways through STDIN. This is one of the situation I struggle at all.

This is one kind of a input: (This is one testcase)

So here I have 6 inputs. But they don't provide number of inputs. So I can't use for loop or while loop to take this input. Because I don't know how many iteration I should do. So I have to take inputs until end. But this is not a input from a file. So I can't use EOF as well. This input is from STDIN. So how can I take this kind of input and store it in an array? Also I don't know how many elements should create in array. Because I don't know how many number of inputs are there. (different testcases may contain different number of inputs). How can I solve this kind of a problem?

Thank you so much for the help!

Answer 1

You should be able to use EOF, because stdin is a file (at least on linux)
