HackerRank C++ Class Templates problem solution

In this HackerRank C++ class templates problem in c++ programming You are given a main() function which takes a set of inputs. The type of input governs the kind of operation to be performed, i.e. concatenation for strings and addition for int or float. You need to write the class template AddElements which has a function add() for giving the sum of int or float elements. You also need to write a template specialization for the type string with a function concatenate() to concatenate the second string to the first string.

Second solution

// template specialization
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

// class template:
template <class T>
class AddElements {
    T element;
  public:
    AddElements (T arg) {element=arg;}
    T add (T x) {return x+element;}
};

// class template specialization:
template <>
class AddElements <string> {
    string element;
  public:
    AddElements (string arg) {element=arg;}
    string concatenate (string arg)
    {
      string s = element+arg;
      return s;
    }
};

int main () {
  int n,i;
  cin >> n;
  for(i=0;i<n;i++) {
    string type;
    cin >> type;
    if(type=="float") {
        double element1,element2;
        cin >> element1 >> element2;
        AddElements<double> myfloat (element1);
        cout << myfloat.add(element2) << endl;
    }
    else if(type == "int") {
        int element1, element2;
        cin >> element1 >> element2;
        AddElements<int> myint (element1);
        cout << myint.add(element2) << endl;
    }
    else if(type == "string") {
        string element1, element2;
        cin >> element1 >> element2;
        AddElements<string> mystring (element1);
        cout << mystring.concatenate(element2) << endl;
