I just take that as a "don't use it - it's going to disappear soon!"

There was nothing *wrong* with your original code, save for the
#include -s and the lack of a using namespace std;  Without namespace
std; - correct me if I'm wrong - you'd need to do iostream::cout
instead of a shorter cout call.

So, you could forgo the using namespace std;, however, you would need
to use iostream::cout and iostream::cin whenever trying to use
something found in the iostream include.

Also, to use system("pause"); you would need to include cstdlib (or
cstdlib.h, take your pick).  If you didn't use using namespace std;
you would also need to use cstdlib::system("pause"); to make that
system call.  Also note that system("pause"); is only valid on MS DOS
machines, since the pause command is not found in other shells like
bash.

That's my $0.02.
