getting hello world program to compile

getting hello world program to compile

• Steven Yetter

  I made a new blank project (er... "solution") and created this source file in it:
  
  #include <stdio>
  int main () {
   cout << "Hello World";
   return 0;
  }
  
  When compiling it I got an error message saying stdafx.h was missing. When I included it I got a different error message. What am I missing

Further, cout is defined in iostream header, not in stdio.h. Further still, all STL symbols including cout are in namespace std. Putting it together, your program should read #include int main () { std::cout << "Hello World"; return 0; } -- With best wishes, Igor Tandetnik
