Thread: Unable to pause program

Hello I have been programming for a few days now and I have runned inn to a little problem. the cin.get(); won't pause my program.

I have tried to use cin.ignore(); above the cin.get() to make it pause but with no sucsess

i have also tried to use

system("pause");

the compiler I use is called "Microsoft Visual c++ 2010"

Code:

#include "stdafx.h"


#include <iostream>


using namespace std;




int main ()
{
    cout << "Hello world\n";
    cout << "Here is 5: " << 5 << "\n";
    cout << " the manipulator endl writes a new line to the screen." <<
        endl;
    cout << " Here is a very big number:\t" << 70000 << endl;
    cout << " Here is the sum of 8 and 5:\t" << 8+5 << endl;
    cout << " Here's a fraction:t\t" << (float) 5/8 << endl;
    cout << " and a very very big number:\t" << (double) 700 * 700 <<
        endl;
    cout << "Don't forget to replace Jesse Liberty with your name...\n";
    cout << "shacko is a C++ programmer!\n";


    
    cin.get();
    return 0
}

You can type getchar();it does the same job.

i use. i dont know if they work very well but they do the job for me...maybe they will help you untill you learn a better method

Code:

cin.ignore();
cin.get();
