Thread: Im really new to this but.....

Hello

Im really new to this and i want to make a little dos program that will just display a message in a dos window.
But the only problem is when i run it, it shuts the box down really fast before you can even read it.

Here is an example code:

Code:

#include <iostream.h>

int main()
{
  cout<<"HEY, you, I'm alive!  Oh, and Hello World!";
  
  return 0;    

}

Any ideas?

I need it so it will just keep the box open then also when they click enter it will shut it down.

Sorry but im new to this only started learning it a few days ago.

Thank you,
Chris
