[C++] Code Error

[CodeinCody]

It says that it cant identify "end1" The code shows i need that there. I took out end1 and it booted the program, but not the "Hello World" Such a simple task.. Well heres the Code

//needed to do stream input and output
#include <iostream>
//saves us from typing std::
using namespace std;

//Entry point for our application
int main()
{
    //prints Hello World to the screen
    cout<<"Hello World"<<end1;
    //waits to close consel
    system("PAUSE");
    //main must return a value.
    return 0;
}

Re: C++ Code Error

#include <iostream>
#include "windows.h"

using namespace std;

int main()
{
	printf("Hello, World\n"); // \n = new line printf= like cout but i like printf :P
	cin.get(); // = press enter
}

What is wrong, is that you use end1 instead of endl. You use a 1 instead of a L (but then uncapitalised). It stands for endline, where only the first 4 characters are used , struggled with that too in the beginning ^^,

Anyways, I prefer getting rid of the 'using', and write it like this:

#include <iostream>

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{    
    std::cout << "Hello World!" << std::endl; // prints 'Hello World!' to the console
    system("PAUSE"); // waits for a key to be pressed (Windows only!)
    return 0;
}

You might say, why writing the std:: if you can use the 'using' keyword? This way my own code will never interfere with the 'std' code, so I don't have to worry so much. Also, this is more clear and everybody sees which function you want to use. Imagine you have a stream called 'cout'...which cout should it use?

When I started learning C++ 4 years ago, I used BorlandC as a compiler.

So this code was like:

#include <iostream.h>
#include <conio.h>

void main()
{
   cout<<"Hello world."<<endl;
   getch();
}

@Daevius, I don't know if it works with Visual Studio, but I assure you that with BorlandC will surely do work.

You miss either 'using namespace std;' after the includes or 'std::' infront of every call to a function in the std namespace.

How does this help the original poster?
