printf() is the formatted output statement from the C language. It is included in the ANSI C++ standard, so is valid C++ as well.
Truth be told, I use printf() in test programs when I want formatted output, with printf() if is a simple function call, with cout and all the necesary manipulators etc., the same job can run to several lines of code!

Incorrect, this was true in original C++ and (is true?) for C, but standard C++ does not have the default-to-int rule. It compiles fine on dev c++ because it's obviously not standard compliant.It compiles fine because in C++ if you don't specify a data type for a function it defaults to int.
