Question

I want to write simple C++ code for adding two integers (in a command line window). How do I do this in Visual Studio 2010?

(I know the code for adding the numbers.. I don’t know how to prepare the files)

@Armen Tsirunyan

I did just that, then I added the following code to the c++ file:-

#include <iostream.h>

main()
{
    int integer1, integer2, sum;
    cout << "Please enter first number";
    cin >> integer1;

    cout << "Please enter second number";
    cin >> integer2;

    sum = integer1 + integer2;
    cout << "The sum of the two numbers is: " << sum << endl;

    return 0;
}

but I got a message telling me that the project was out of date and I would like to build it, I put “yes”… then I got an error!
