hmm... 123?? not exactly. But i know a syntax like this:
[code]
int main()
{
cout << "Hello World!";
system("PAUSE");
return 0;
}
[code]

That was me actaully :)

Code:

---

int main()
{
cout << "Hello World!";
system("PAUSE");
return 0;
}

you can use it whenever you need it, but depending on the compiler and target OS, it's usually recommended to use functions like sleep (int), delay (long), etc...

I like Sleep(...) :D

Its in windows.h if you're interested, but is therefore platform specific

I like CLS :)

And _sleep(unsigned long) is in stdlib.h :)
