Heedle, I promise I wont needle you about your name..

 

Use a    system("pause");

 

And basically after the program runs, it will ask you to press any key to
continue.

 

This only works on windows machines though, and some will suggest that you
program a response to a question in order to make your program portable...

Subject: [Dev-C++] Compiler Ineffective

 

I made a program yesterday. I compiled it to an EXE file, but when I ran it,
the window didn't stay up and I couldn't see what it did.

This is the code of a basic program I made that doesn't stay open.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main ()
{
cout << "Hello World!";
return 0;
}

Do I need a pause in there?
Is there a piece of code at the beginning I don't know about?

If I am missing anything or if it is natural, please tell me.

Thank you!

P.S. This is my first time on this list.
P.S.S. Don't make fun of my name please. I know it sucks and I don't need
you to rub it in.
P.S.S.S. Don't take offense at the previous sentence. It is just preliminary
in case anybody     does make fun of it.
