    Exclamation HELP! Don't Know NOTHING!!

    I need to code the following c++ program by Monday.

    Code a program that will print "Hello World" on the first line of the screen, then on the next line print "My name is [name]". Then the user can press any key to exit.

    I've been working on this for the past 9 hours, but I still can't figure it out!! How do I do this?

    Sorry, but I am new at programming, but I plan on majoring in it.
    I am Error. When all else fails, use fire.

    Well your problem is very easy!

    extern "C" system(const char *);
    void main()
    {
    system("echo Hello World!");
    system("echo My name is [name]");
    system("pause");
    }
    I am against the teaching of evolution in schools. I am also against widespread
    literacy and the refrigeration of food.

    >>I've been working on this for the past 9 hours,
    Then you must have some code to show. Why not post it and someone will help you.
    When all else fails, read the instructions.
    If you're posting code, use code tags: [code] /* insert code here */ [/code]

    ...come away from the fire people...
    ...must...hold...back....
    Code:
    #include <cmath>
    #include <complex>
    bool euler_flip(bool value)
    {
        return std::pow
        (
            std::complex<float>(std::exp(1.0)), 
            std::complex<float>(0, 1) 
            * std::complex<float>(std::atan(1.0)
            *(1 << (value + 2)))
        ).real() < 0;
    }

    howdy,
    the classic "hello world" code is available in about a billion places.

    M.R.
    I don't like you very much. Please post a lot less.
    Cheez
    *and then*
    No, I know you were joking. My point still stands.
