<DIV></DIV>Hello Aaron,
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>since you are developing console applications, my suggestion is: run them
<DIV></DIV>from the console. In fact, when you use the console, there is no need to
<DIV></DIV>add "cin.get" or "system("PAUSE")" or any other special instruction
<DIV></DIV>preventing Windows from closing the window :-)
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>For instance, the following code would work as expected:
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>#include <IOSTREAM>
<DIV></DIV>int
<DIV></DIV>main()
<DIV></DIV>{
<DIV></DIV>std::cout << "Please enter a number:";
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>int n;
<DIV></DIV>std::cin >> n;
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>std::cout << "You entered: "<< n << '\n';
<DIV></DIV>}
<DIV></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>>I have a question about closing a terminal window during a C++

<DIV></DIV>>http://www.cprogramming.com/close.html, it says that inserting the
<DIV></DIV>>line
<DIV></DIV>>cin.get() before the return 0 line will keep the terminal window
<DIV></DIV>>open
<DIV></DIV>>until I press enter. This I find is true for the following program:
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>#include <IOSTREAM.H>
<DIV></DIV>>int main()
<DIV></DIV>>{
<DIV></DIV>> cout<<"The Compiler Works";
<DIV></DIV>> cin.get()
<DIV></DIV>> return 0;
<DIV></DIV>>}
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>However for the following code, I type my number, press enter, and
<DIV></DIV>>the window
<DIV></DIV>>closes immediately. Why doesn't the compiler display "You entered:
<DIV></DIV>>", then my
<DIV></DIV>>number, and then close the terminal window once I push enter (which
<DIV></DIV>>would be
<DIV></DIV>>the second time)?? Am I putting the cin.get() statement in the
<DIV></DIV>>wrong spot??
<DIV></DIV>>Check out the code I'm using.
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>#include <IOSTREAM.H>
<DIV></DIV>>int main()
<DIV></DIV>>{
<DIV></DIV>> int thisisanumber;
<DIV></DIV>> cout<<"Please enter a number:";
<DIV></DIV>> cin>>thisisanumber;
<DIV></DIV>> cout<<"You entered: "<<THISISANUMBER; DIV <>> cin.get()
<DIV></DIV>> return 0;
<DIV></DIV>>}
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>I'm stuck, and I'm trying to teach myself C++. Your help is greatly
<DIV></DIV>>appreciated.
