When I write some console application in Bloodshed Dev C++ or Visual Studio, I hate bringing up comand line and typing in the whole path to the program I’ve just written. I found two short ways of having “Press any key to continue…” before the console window disappears. One of them is a good one and the other is bad.
1. Good one
| int main()
{ // do something cout<<”Press Enter to continue…”; |
Well, this one really is “Press Enter to continue…”, which shouldn’t be a problem 
2. Bad one
| int main()
{ // do something system.(“PAUSE”); |
This one is very bad! If you want to know why, read this article:

I wrote this little function which converts integer type variable to string. Always very handy!

string toString(int n) |
