    I am a beginner and i am typing in some simple program code and most of my programs are running but close immediately. I am using Dev-C++, Here is some code maybe someone can school me a bit???

    Code:
    #include <stdio.h>
    
    int radius, area;
    
    int main(void)
    {
        printf( "Enter radius (i.e. 10): " );
        scanf( "%d", &radius );
        area = (int) (3.14159 * radius * radius);
        printf( "\n\nArea = %d\n", area );
    getchar();
    return 0;
    }

    Open a console window (cmd) and run the program.

    If you are a beginner use Turbo C - it's a free download and easy to install and use - it was the number 1 compiler for Ms-Dos.

    And, dont have any apprehensions about using Turbo C just because ms-dos is obsolete - you will find it's still the best way to learn C!
