Answer: (B) >>
The extraction operator (>>) is used with cin to take input from the standard input stream.

cin >> age;
Here, the user enters a value and the extraction operator transfers the input into the variable age.
Remember: cin >> is commonly used for formatted input, while cout << is used for output.
