Write a Program for the printed passwords

#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h> // Needed for getchar()
using namespace std;

enum IN {
IN_BACK = 8,
IN_RET = 13
};

string takePasswdFromUser(char sp = '*') {


string passwd = "";
char ch_ipt;

while (true) {
ch_ipt = getchar(); // Fixed: getchar() requires <stdio.h>

if (ch_ipt == IN::IN_RET) {
cout << endl;
return passwd;
} else if (ch_ipt == IN::IN_BACK && !passwd.empty()) {
passwd.pop_back();
cout << "\b \b"; // Erase the last '*' from the console
continue;
} else if (ch_ipt == IN::IN_BACK && passwd.empty()) {
continue;
}

passwd.push_back(ch_ipt);
cout << sp; // Print '*' instead of the actual character
}
}

int main() {
string name;
string input;

cout << "Enter the Username: ";


cin >> name;

cout << "Enter the Password: ";


input = takePasswdFromUser(); // Call function to take password input

cout << "\nEntered Password: " << input << endl; // Display password for
testing

return 0;
}
