I just downloaded Visual Studio 2013. When I compile C, it doesn\'t show me my output. The output screen will show up for a brief second and then disappears.
You can run the application in debug mode and in release mode. Normally Ctrl + F5 will run the application without debugger. And F5just runs the application.
If you do Ctrl+F5 ("Start without Debugging"), the console remains open at the end and asks you to Press any key to continue . . . here you can see the output.
If you are just using F5 then you are in a debug mode. At the end you add, getchar() function before retuen 0;so the console will wait until you press any key...
