Need some help here

Hi all,
I started with coding some really easy things recently , but i canut get anything to work , My first code for example :

// operating with variables

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
// declaring variables
int a, b;
int result;

// process:
a = 5;
b = 2;
a = a + 1;
result = a - b;

// print out the result
cout << result;

// terminate the program
return 0;
}

For a really easy calculator , now , i opened this as a project file or however u call it , and then i get this error as an .exe :

And this error as a .dll :

Now , how to solve this ? I cant get anything to work ... pls help

You created a console project? If yes, the console window just disappears too fast so you cant see it. You could add a getch(); at the end, it would make the program wait for a keypress. Include conio.h to use it.

well ye, its a console project , and there opens an (empty) black window wich dissapears the same second , well , how to do that thingy to make it last longer ? cus im a newb

Use

std::cin.get();

at the end of your code to wait for the user to press a key before continuing (i.e, terminating). Put it before the "return 0;" line though, otherwise the function will exit before it gets to the std::cin.get();

This. Or use Sleep(millisecs) if you want the window to disappear after a specified amount of time.

i added Sleep(time) etc , but still , the black window opens , and dissapears after saying Hello World --' i dont get it lols

Wait , i prolly found ma mistake , when u start new project , console application , etc , then u get a series of files wich are already coded , do u need to make a new file (wich) ? or put this code in wich file (basic starting name) ?

wow , when i run it now (made some lil adjustements) the answer appears in the black box but dissapears again fast , and when i add Sleep(time) or any of the other things before return 0; then i get an error ...

Ok , it works !!!! The code is now :

// Calculator3.cpp : main project file.

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
// declaring variables
int a, b;
int result;

// process:
a = 5;
b = 2;
result = a + b;

// print out the result
cout << result;

// time
std::cin.get();

// terminate program
return 0;
}

It works , ty so much

put the cin.get(); right before the return 0; if your having to enter any data you need to use cin.get(); more than once.

Perhaps you should read the code he already has before posting, then you'd see he already solved it and cin.get() was already before "return 0" (which I outlined in my first post anyway...)
