Yes and he was the most polite and curteous man I have ever met. Your human(whatever that means) is a contribution to society.

Is it guaranteed in this program that "Hello world" is printed (before the console closes)?

Not unless you add std::endl or std::flush to the end of your cout statement.

hmmm... couldn't have been my human

I'm fairly certain I'm not a boy

It would be nice to have a subforum to put these threads in so we can still have fun

= a multi-threaded thread

Like the use of system("PAUSE") with cin, instead of posting the question you should be setting up tests to examine the use and interaction of system("PAUSE") with the laws of physics.

If you find that you get any errors then you should post the error and your code and then someone will attempt to help you. The help is usually proportionate to amount of effort you put in.

However, if you do destroy the multiverse with your hamfisted keyboard mashing I, for one, will be most upset.

In order for the System( ) function to be used as a cin / cout parameter, the function would have to return ostream reference I believe.

That's if you do this:

Code:

cout << system( "PAUSE" );

which I don't think is the case here. Also, system() returns an int, so the above code would print out the return value of system().
