Re: [Dev-C++] Beginner help

Another common solution to this is a call to the function getc(), which =
waits for the user to press a key, before continueing.

For example:

int main(void)
{
  cout << "Hello World!\n";
  getc();
}

To use getc(), will require the stdio.h C library, I suppose a similar =
solution is possible with cin, the opposite to cout.  Also, the standard =
iostream header is require for cout/cin.

  You could do

  #include <stdlib.h>

  then

  system("PAUSE");=20

  at the end of your main function.

    I have just yeaterday started to tach myself programming in c++.I =
was wondering if after you have compiled a programe and run it how to =
make it saty on the screen to view it.

    I know you can open up the dos prompt and drag it into the box,it =
then shows its path at the command line then one click and enter and it =
runs.But can it be run and displayed in dev version 4 to stay on the =
screen till you close the window down.


    It is mostlikely an option but with all the terms new to me i aint =
sure off what it would be called .

    Thanks all...
