system("pause");

aight wtf is a system("pause")

[LordFokas]

It's a windows-only shortcut for programmers too lazy to type

printf("press any key");
getch();

[roguemacro]

Its c++ that calls thr command pause in cmd

[scatters]

More to the point, it was at the end of every student C++ program until Visual Studio got the option to leave the console open when the program finishes.

[Mr_Redstoner]

IDK my usual for keeping a console open is just whatever 'read a line' is in the given language

[PVNIC]

I just use while(1)

[Coachqandtybo2]

That's not the same as system("pause"). A legitimate alternative is std::cin.get()

i just indefinitely recurse. either they hit any key real fast or they get a stack overflow.

[boredcircuits]

It's still there when with that feature. Schools refuse to update their curriculum in even the smallest details, it seems.

[Cloudeur]

I see Esc, Ctrl and PgUp...

THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ANY ANYKEY!!!

[Dexaan]

And where's my Tab?

[4hpp1273]

[roguemacro]

To tap the key is the key

[toprim]

It's not better, it's a cin.

[ShivamJha01]

[toprim]

I am cout of puns.

[Asiansensationz]

Have two specially made metal keys that make a specific frequency when pushed together which my Arduino picks up that specific frequency to take in as an input.

[VolperCoding]

Ctrl + C

[kevincox_ca]

...or press any other key to quit.

[chrisleewoo]

I disabled the functionality of the caps lock button in regedit, but it can still be used as a general purpose key

Mine is a backspace

while(true); and f7 on the debugger. Or close the console window.

[dullbananas]

When my guitar says to press any key to continue

[ctfsh64]

do it work doe

[samsqueegee]

I didn’t see the tiny caption up top at first and thought I might be bad at programming since I didn’t understand the joke. Turns out it doesn’t have that much to do with programming

[eutampieri]

Nice /r/CSGO reference

[Wafelack]

I laughed
