Please explain what you mean by not working. Are you getting an error? If so, what is the error?

1) You are using iostream.h, which is now deprecated. Leave off the .h

2) You don't output either a '\n' character or the std::endl character. cout sometimes does not print until one of these two is printed (Stick with std::endl)

3) You refer to cout as cout, not std::cout. Either write std::cout or say using std::cout at the beginning of your program, under the #include statement.

4) You are not returning 0, but you have told the compiler that main returns an int by saying "int main()". Add "return 0;" after your cout statement.

These 4 problems are very basic issues. If you copied and pasted this code from a website, don't go there again. If you copied it from a textbook, get a new textbook. If you wrote it yourself from what you learned in class, go over your notes and fix these mistakes.
