[Dev-C++] run window keeps closing

[Kendall, R. <RKe...@qc...>]

Help!  I am a brand new CS student, and am just learning C++.  When I run my
compiled program, a DOS window opens, and my program seems to work fine.
Once I enter my last input, the program finishes and the DOS window closes.
I can't see the output from my program.
 
I have been able to open a DOS window and run the program from there, but
there has to be a better way!  Is there any way I can 
"compile and run" in one step?
 
Thanks very much,
 
Ray

Hi Ray.

If you put

system("PAUSE");

at the end of your program the DOS-window will remain open after your=
 program has terminated, until you press any key.
