Basic Workflow

1. Writing Code

// Java Example
public class Main {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello, World!");
    }
}
// C++ Example
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main() {
    cout << "Hello, World!" << endl;
    return 0;
}

2. Compiling

3. Running Programs

Interactive Programs

Java Interactive Mode

Programs using Scanner automatically enter interactive mode:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class Interactive {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter your name: ");
        String name = scanner.nextLine();
        System.out.println("Hello, " + name + "!");
    }
}

C++ Interactive Mode

Programs using cin, getline() automatically enter interactive mode:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

int main() {
    string name;
    cout << "Enter your name: ";
    getline(cin, name);
    cout << "Hello, " << name << "!" << endl;
    return 0;
}

Interactive Mode Features:
