Hi all this is my first post and my first program trying to run you guessed it Hello World! okay i compiled it and it was successful but when i run it. my cmd dosent open i used the ;system("PAUSE") the command pops open but it just says to press any key to continue? it dosen't even show the the words hello world? How can i get it to show what i put in the code in the cmd prompt?

You might start by giving us a clue as to what you're doing - what language, what your code looks like, things like that.

Im writing in C++ and this is the code

//my First Program//
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout <<"Hello World";
;return 0;
}

How are you trying to run it? This is a console application, so you will need to open a command prompt window for it to run in. Open a command prompt window, then navigate to the directory where the executable for your program is, then type the name of the executable. It should print Hello World.
