hi. i've just been messing around with a few simple programs today to refresh my memory on C++. I decided to write a simple one and try to use a GUI development program to see if i can make a gui for it. now when you use the GUI developer to attach code to the widgets can you only attach a function for it to execute? Here is the simple program i was tryiing to make a GUI for.

(Toggle Plain Text)

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

 int main()
{
	int NUM;
	
	cout << "Input a number: ";
	cin >> NUM;
	cout << "You entered " << NUM << "\n";
}

now because i know the input a number would be a input box would i have the first cout and cin in a function say input() and then have the widget use that function for the input box? Or is that an unecessary step? Thanks for any replies in advance.
