    Problem with Hello World

    I've made this work before, but now when I try the hello world program and use start without debugging it just says the "Press any key to continue..." message.
    Code:
    #include <iostream>
    using namespace std;
    
    int main()
    {
    	cout << "Hello World";
    }

    add the "<< endl" part to the end

    endl is a constant that tells the object cout to flush the buffer and move to the next line. if the buffer is not flushed, it won't make it to the screen.
