cin.get()

[marvolo1300]

i made a very simple calculator and when i press enter to receive the result it doesnt work. can someone tell me what i did wrong?

#include "stdafx.h"

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
	int a;
		int b;

		cout << "Choose your first number";
		cin >> a;

		cout << "Choose your second number";
		cin >> b;
		
		cout << "The result is"<<a*b;
		cout << "Press any key to exit";
		
		cin.get();
		return 0;
}

Add this before cin.get() (you'll have to include climits):
cin.ignore(LONG_MAX,'\n');

Chinese:你为什么要用cin.get()呢？用cin.get()必须要包含头文件climits
Enghlish:Why u must use cin.get()?If u must ,you must include the head file climits.

Why must you post on a solved topic?
"ty dude it works". See? It's been solved, and it worked. Helios told him the solution. And Helios already said to include climits...

cout<<endl;
cout<<"ENTER 2ND NUMBER : ";

cout<<endl;
result=first_num*second_num;
cout<<"THE RESULT IS :"<<result;
return 0;
