Too many characters to be written, use:
@Fredd: .sync discards all the characters in the input buffer, so there won't be any newlines. Then .ignore works kinda the same as you'd be reading from the keyboard with .get or something, but instead of storing the read stuff, it just ignores them. |

Dude.., why are you talking about loop statements here?

I heard that System("PAUSE"); is not a good idea for some reason... |

It will get the job done, no doubt, just not as efficiently. Also, it will leave "Press any key to continue...." on your screen which is annoying.

Because if you shove a loop at the end it will never close. I was joking about the goto thing though. Just don't use system. |

| Also, how come SYSTEM is not a valid identifier because it gives me compiling errors when i tried it. Should i put another #include on there? If yes, then tell me what it is, I did put #include <iostream> and #include <string>. |

| add #include <stdlib.h> and try making SYSTEM all lowercase, that might do the trick. |

Also, a note:
If you are trying to make the process block, efficiency does not matter. Unless adding a couple bytes to your program's length for the string pushes it beyond the executable size limit or something ridiculous like that.
The real reason not to use system("pause"); is because it is ugly.

I win now?
My view is that right now, people don't need to be the few milliseconds faster or the few bytes smaller. Yes, size does matter but, only big differences. (Like compiling in Release and not Debug...) |

Use get
cin.sync()
cin.ignore()
Or else it would take 300mb RAM to run your program... 
When you use System("pause") people actually know they have to press a key to continue, unless it's just for testing but you could also print that yourself though...
| Code: | | printf("Press any Key to continue...\n") |

system("pause"); is like using cooking oil to run your car. It might be cheaper and easier to get but it could fuck your car and would probably stink of shit.
You're already using iostream so just use sync() ignore(). |

That's a nice analogy; never would of thought of it like that. |

Thank you!!!
And i won't make the common mistake of not putting ";" at the end of lines . |
im new at this so the code is // 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;
}
where do i put in the cync thingy,that pauses the program |

im pretty sure they go right above return 0;
//terminate the program:
cin.sync();
cin.ignore();
return 0;
}
i think its suppose to look like that |
