    Dev C++ compiler question

    I am trying to compile a program I wrote for a class in DevC++ 4, but when I compile the code, the console window flashes across the screen, but disappears almost instantely, so I can't view the output. Did I miss a setting when I went to compile or is there another issue here?

    The window closes as soon as you return from main. One way to fix this would be calling getchar before returning.

    Code:
    getchar();

    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
