I don't see a thing wrong with it. Today is my first day learning, so I sorry if I'm being a retard.
It pops up in the DOS window and kills itself when I input my four-letter name Jeff. Any ideas?
If you check the post on the window closing too fast you will see a pause command. plug that in before return(0). also you might want to change void main to int main
Interestingly, when I cut and paste code from the cprogramming.com guide, it also kills itself upon pressing enter.
THe pause command is in a post called " to quick to read"
hope I helped
That keeps it up at least, thanks.
Is there anyway without the "Press any key..." message?
Look in the FAQ...
http://www.cprogramming.com/boardfaq.html#pause
Wave upon wave of demented avengers march cheerfully out of obscurity unto the dream.
ok before return use
cout<<" Press a key to continue......";
getch();
That will work.. After the message is displayed.. It will wait for a user input.. After a key is pressed.. It closes..
