    What compiler? And what problem are you having?

    http://www.bloodshed.net/ <- Dev-C++ IDE with the GCC compiler

    Note, to be standard C++, that code really should be:
    Code:
    #include <iostream>
    using namespace std;
    int main()
    {
      cout<<"The Compiler Works";
      return 0;
    }
    **edit**
    If the screen is flashing on really quickly, and then disappearing, read the FAQ.

    Cheers

    The word rap as it applies to music is the result of a peculiar phonological rule which has stripped the word of its initial voiceless velar stop.

    I didn't think about that. You're supposed to put

    using namespace std

    after your includes. It allows you do use the cout function. If you don't do the above it won't reconize cout. You can do something like

    Code:
    std::cout << "Hey" << endl;
    I think thats it. Not sure though

    >> I think thats it.
    Yep, that'll work in place of the using declaration.

    **edit**
    You'd need std::endl instead of endl then too.
