if im setting main() as null by using void, i can't return a value... so try:

Code: [Select]
#include <iostream.h>

void main ()
{
cout << "Hello World!" << endl;
}

Did you put a comma in place of a semi-colon, cuz that would do it.  It would be really easy to miss, too.

I hate languages that make you put something at the end of a line, like C++, COBOL, PERL, and I'm sure there are others out there that make you do some things like that, too.  Oh well... I'll just stick to my VFP.

i don't see why that is a bad thing, i actually like it, because languages like java fuck up if you put something on different lines

Um... yeah.

Why not make a language simple so as not to have it fuck up if you forget some stupid detail like a semi-colon or a period at the end of a line.  Why not make it request something to continue a line and leave it at that, like in VFP.  I don't have to let it know if I am finishing a line or not, because it just knows.  I do have to let it know if I'm using more than one line for one string of commands.  That seems pretty basic to me.
