Im new to C++ and Im having issues

[Battlewoundz]

Hey everybody im new here and new to C++, I followed all the instructions in the Hello World introduction, but I cant seem to work it.

I use Fedora 4, and i cant figure out if i wrote the code in the wrong place, or I dont know if im not typing the right thing to run it.

Help is greatly appreciated. thanks

As much as we would love to able to see into other people's minds, this is something that sadly none of us has mastered yet, so I'm afraid you'll have to provide us with more information.

What have you done?

It's all simple.

1. You can use any text editor to write the code.
2. Save it to any folder you like (it is common to use the .cpp suffix, e.g. hello.cpp)
3. Open your console, browse to the folder, that contains your hello.cpp file
4. run the following command:
g++ hello.cpp
5. This should have produced the file a.out (or some error messages)
6. You can execute your file by typing
./a.out

If any error occurred or you have got questions to one of these steps, you can post it here. I hope, i could help.

You Should use Dev C++. It's Great For Begginers!

You shouldn't use Dev-C++. Get wxDev-C++. Dev-C++ is no longer supported by the authors.

File -> New Project -> Hello World Project.
Project -> Build and Run
