Embedding C++ code inside a Julia function using Cxx package

General Usage

Hey, I was playing with the Cxx package and tried the following code and got confused. :wink:

julia>  function playing()
           for i=1:5
               icxx"""
                   int tellme;
                   std::cout << "Please enter a number: " << std::endl;
                   std::cin >> tellme;
                   std::cout << "\n Yout number is " << tellme << "\n" << std::endl;
               """
           end
       end
playing (generic function with 1 method)

julia> playing()

                   std::cout << "Please enter a number: " << std::endl;
                   std::cin >> tellme;
                   std::cout << "\n Yout number is " << tellme << "\n" << std::endl;
               """

I did not input number 0 at all. Basically, I only type the letter f, and the julia REPL did not give me any chance to enter any number afterwards…
