just before return, place a getchar();

This is what I use, it pauses right before exiting, it's pretty much the same as getchar(), only difference that pressing any key works to exit, where if you use getchar() you have to hit return (enter) to exit

system("PAUSE");
return EXIT_SUCCESS;

Cheers,

Dont use system("pause"); because you can easily replace it with cin.get(); which is, to the controary of system("pause"); , compatible with more OS's then just Windows. If you can should you always make your program cross-OS if you can.
