Vector push_back returns invalid conversion

Im new to cpp vectors and i keep encountering this issue

error: no matching function for call to ‘push_back(const char [6])’

#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
    vector<int> names;
    names.push_back("Lewis");
    names.push_back("Mark");
    names.push_back("Reece");
    names.push_back("Max");
    for(int i = 0; i < names.size(); i++)
        cout << names[i] << '\n';
    return 0;
}

This is the error

test.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:
test.cpp:6:26: error: no matching function for call to ‘push_back(const char [6])’

>Solution :

The issue is that you are using a vector<int> rather than a vector<string>

#include <vector>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
    vector<string> names;
    names.push_back("Lewis");
    names.push_back("Mark");
    names.push_back("Reece");
    names.push_back("Max");
    for(int i = 0; i < names.size(); i++)
        cout << names[i] << '\n';
    return 0;
}
