Running my programs

When I compile my c code and try to run it, the screen pops up but goes away in a flash, I cannot see what the program is doing as it goes so fast, I am using Bloodshed's Dev-c++ on Windows XP, couls someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong this is the code-

#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
printf("Hello World\n");
}

[please, use the code tags (the [#] button)]

Code:

---

#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
    printf("Hello World\n");
}

A

Code:

---

return 0;

---

is missing...

Add a

Code:

---

(void) getchar();

---

before the return. It's a well known issue of Dev-C++. I hope it will be fixed some day, because it generates a lot of traffic...

Be considerate and read this before posting code like it asks you to.

Read the FAQ about your disappearing window problem.

Not a good start here...but welcome anyway.

Thanks for the help and I will be sure to add the code tags in my following posts.
