i use:
Code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout << "Hello World" << endl;
cin.get();
}
Very basic code -- the using namespace std basically gets rid of having to keeping typing std::cout -- saves ya time
The cin.get(); is basically saying untill the user presses enter. A good book I recommend is C++ for dummies, the 7 book edition, it gives you all the stuff you need for C++ and then gets you started into Visual C++. I got mine for around $34.99 and I've learned quite a bit in 2 months -- it will take time though, and dont be afraid to ask... I know how you feel cus im 15 and i started some time back... that book taught me alot, along with the people on this message board.
