Passing string array to the function C++

Question

I want to pass a string array to the function like this int function (string text[]) . But the IntelliSense says that identifier string is undefined . Why can't I pass a string array like usually I do with int arrays ?

IntelliSense is not a definitive say on whether your code works or not, what happens if you compile it? — K-ballo

Because int is a built-in datatype while string is a datatype created using built-in types and exposed via the standard library. — legends2k

Are you using std::string or just string? Try adding using std::string if you don't have it in your code.
