Pause execution?

Is there someway to pause the execution of a program? I have a large
while loop and before it gets started I would like to pause the program
so I can see the output before it gets overwritten by the loop.

Have an input statement there, something like

{ std::string blah;
std::cout << "pausing, press enter..." << std::flush;
std::cin >blah; }

Next time, please read the FAQ, it's there.
