run window closes when pressed "enter" key

[Nobody/Anonymous]

Hi, I am learing C++ now. So, everytime i run any program such as follows:

include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main ()
{
int i;
cout << "Please enter an integer value: ";
cin >> i;
cout << "The value you entered is " << i;
cout << " and its double is " << i*2 << ".\n";
return 0;
}

after i enter the value in the first line and press "Enter", the run window dissapear. It supposed to calculate the value in the second line. What am i doing wrong here? Please help me with this. Thanks
Bill.

One way to insert a pause in your program, as it is written,
is to insert these 3 lines ...

cout << "\nPress 'Enter' to continue ... " << flush;
cin.sync(); // to 'eat up' any characters in the cin input stream
cin.get(); // To wait for 'Enter' key to be pressed

If you had done a little searching, you might have discovered this for you self.
'Searching', using appropriate key words, is an important skill to acquire too.

It does, but after calculate and show the second line if finish, so You can't see the result.
Try to insert a pause before the program exit (the return).
