How to compare two C strings?

Question

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
  char username[50];
  char password[50];
  char passConfirm[50];
  
  cout << "Create a username: ";
  cin >> username;

  cout << "Create a password: ";
  cin >> password;
  
  cout << "Confirm your password: ";
  cin >> passConfirm;

  if (password == passConfirm) {
    cout << "Password confirmed";  
  } else {
    cout << "Password denied";
  }
}

Trying to see if the user's input is the same as the user's other input but I don't know how to do it.

I tried that in order to find out if the password is the same as passConfirm but it won't work and I don't know what to do.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
  string username;
  string password;
  string passConfirm;
  
  cout << "Create a username: ";
  cin >> username;

  cout << "Create a password: ";
  cin >> password;
  
  cout << "Confirm your password: ";
  cin >> passConfirm;

  if (password == passConfirm) {
    cout << "Password confirmed";  
  } else {
    cout << "Password denied";
  }
}

string is a vector of chars, therefore it is not necessary to create an array of chars
