Hey all, total newbie here

I am just starting to learn C++, and doing ok for the most part. I'm using Dev-C++ and everything was fine until a couple of days ago. For some reason, all of my

(Toggle Plain Text)

std::cin.get();

lines stopped working. Out of nowhere. The program will run through and then just close because it has ended, without allowing me to see the text (the purpose of the cin.get() anyway). I have no idea why this is. If you have any suggestions please give them.
Thanks in advance

did u forget "#include <iostream>" and "using namespace std"?

No, no I did not forget those. Unfortunately it isn't quite that easy. Like I said, it was working fine for a couple of days then all of a sudden *poof*...

hmm guess I can't really help you then. Seems like something happened to your comp. Perhaps you deleted something?

Maybe, though I don't remember doing anything that would have deleted any files...but then again we are talking about a computer here...

Ok, I'm stupid

I forgot a cin.ignore(); line after input, so I suppose that my program was generating some error (I was adding ints). Thanks anyway though
