hey guys i am actually VERY new at development and just installed kubuntu on my computer. Using a compiler named kate. For some reason i just cant seem to figure out why i cannot run script.

I just put in the following code that i found to test out the kate compiler:

#include <iostream>

int main()
{
	int num1;  //create a variable "int" to hold a number

	int num2;  //and also create another variable to hold another interfer
	
	std::cout << "type a number: ";  //no endl....
	std::cin >> num1; //puts inpot to num1
	std::cout << "type another number; ";
	std::cin >> num2;

	int result;
	result = num1 + num2;  //adds the two numbers

	std::cout << result;  //outputs results to screen
	return 0;
}

Then i clicked on Tools - external tools - run script

Nothing happens except a quick flash.

When it comes to the code itself i actually got the code from the following location:

So i know the code works...

Can someone please help me get my compiler working please?
attaching some screen shots as well

thanks in advance

try adding this right before return(0);


SYSTEM("PAUSE");


that will pause and display a 'Press any key to continue' dialog in your program. you maight want to start a new line

cout << "last line of tex /n";

SYSTEM("PAUSE");
return(0);
}

hope it helps!

why not jusy compile through the konsole? just go into the konsole and type "g c c <program name>" with-out the spaces in g c c & <>, and than to run it just type ./a.out and if you get fancy rename the file to something like g c c -o <what you want it named> <program file> and than run it by ./<what you named it>

so thats why you typed it as g c c...lol
to get you a good ide. type this into your Konsole / Terminal

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install codeblocks

code blocks works great for me.
but you may also need a g c c or g + + if it gives you an error
so type this

sudo apt-get install g++

The responses about how to hold a MS Windows console window open don't apply to you because you have, to your credit, chosen to work in a developer friendly OS (Linux) with a real console unlike the half-hearted attempt provided in Windows. You can safely ignore those well intended responses.

1 - Terminology
Kate is a text editor not a compiler.

2 - What you have there is not a script.
It is C++ source code that needs to be compiled.
A script can be run from the editor because it is interpreted language.
C++ must be compiled to create a program that can then be run.

As already suggested:
"gcc" is a good option
"code::blocks" is another good option
There are a lot more options here:
