    It is probably in that Command Prompt window that I would expect the text of Hello World! to have been output. Is that possible?

    JAWS doesn't show anything in the Command Prompt. If the text was shown, I'd be able to read it with the left and right arrow keys.

      At this point, wait for somebody helpful to try just what you have in Visual Studio and explain what it is they see about where the output goes.

        This user (KrolPolski) found that arrow keys don't work in the Command Prompt for JAWS, but another user (Graham87) described a workaround: https://www.reddit.com/r/Blind/comments/8zf1f1/using_a_command_prompt_with_jaws/

        See if you can get JAWS to read something on the Command Prompt before it closes. The Command Prompt should contain the text, "Hello world!"

        If you still have no luck with JAWS, does the Microsoft Narrator work?

            Well, that's it for "Hello World": you've done it! (And very well done!) You have written a program, compiled it, and run it successfully with the expected output.

            What you do now is up to you :) If you mean you want to turn to Qt you'd have to install it, I don't know what you intended to do.

                You can integrate Visual Studio with Qt to develop programs, or you can use Qt Creator as your "IDE" (Integrated Development Environment). I don't know whether previous discussions have indicated a preference for which one for you.

                  I think from what I've experienced so far, Visual Studio is the more accessible one for me. That being said, how would I make Qt programs with Visual Studio?

                    I use JAWS (Job Access With Speech).

                    JAWS does work with Visual Studio: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/d9b295e6-fa48-4c44-8129-37ccf55689f9/is-visual-studio-compatable-with-any-screen-readers-for-example-jaws-nvda-or-zoomtext-i-am

                    @Annabelle said in Qt Programming Language:

                    Is there a web site I can go to in order to learn more about these concepts you explain? I've tried http://www.learncpp.com, but what's there doesn't seem to focus on some of the code you explained.

                    All the concepts I mentioned are discussed in http://www.learncpp.com.

                    • Strings are in chapters 4, 6, and 17.
                    • Variables are in chapters 1, 2, and 4.
                    • Literals are in chapter 2.
                    • Enumerations are in chapter 4.
                    • Assignment and comparison operators are in chapter 1 (specifically, section 1.5).
                    • if statements are in chapters 2 and 5.

                    At the very least, work through all of chapter 0, all of chapter 1, section 2.1, and section 2.6. After that, search for the concepts I mentioned before.

                    This will take time (a few weeks at least), but it will be worth it.

                    All the best with learning C++!

                    Do you remember the plan? Your task is to learn the basics of C++ first, without Qt.

                    First, try to modify the code to make the Command Prompt say something other than "Hello world!". For example, try to make it say, "Hi Annabelle!"

                    After that, continue working through the learncpp.com tutorial.

                        JAWS doesn't show anything in the Command Prompt. If the text was shown, I'd be able to read it with the left and right arrow keys.

                        This user (KrolPolski) found that arrow keys don't work in the Command Prompt for JAWS, but another user (Graham87) described a workaround: https://www.reddit.com/r/Blind/comments/8zf1f1/using_a_command_prompt_with_jaws/

                        See if you can get JAWS to read something on the Command Prompt before it closes. The Command Prompt should contain the text, "Hello world!"

                        If you still have no luck with JAWS, does the Microsoft Narrator work?

                        I ran it again, and in the Command Prompt, I got:
                        "Hello World! Press any key to continue..."

                        Great! That means JAWS can read the outputs of your programs.

                        What do I do next?

                        Do you remember the plan? Your task is to learn the basics of C++ first, without Qt.

                        First, try to modify the code to make the Command Prompt say something other than "Hello world!". For example, try to make it say, "Hi Annabelle!"

                        After that, continue working through the learncpp.com tutorial.

                        @Annabelle said in Qt Programming Language:

                        I wonder if I could make Qt programs with Visual Studio. Or is that just for C++?

                        C++ is a programming language, while Qt is a library for C++. You use the C++ language to write programs with the Qt library.

                        This is why learning the basics of C++ is an important step to achieve your goal of making Qt programs.

                        Would I put "Hi Annabelle!", in the spot of code where it would usually say "Hello World"? I'm confused!

                        Yes indeed! You should not be confused.

                        I had not realised you were working through a learn C++ tutorial. That is an excellent idea. Moving onto Qt now would be a huge step --- you have to learn to walk before you can run!

                        @JKSH is getting you to just modify some existing, working code to do something slightly different. That happens all the time in programming.

                        Get it working with the new message instead of the present one. Then, how about making it output two lines instead of one? After it has said the new Hi Annabelle!, make it say Bye bye now. That is going to require a second std::cout line after the existing one, isn't it? You can either type that in from scratch, or to avoid typing you could copy & paste your existing line and then change the string in the middle of the line. I don't know how easily your interface allows you to copy & paste, it's up to you.

                            I ended up having to make a separate project, as when I put "Hi Annabelle!" and "Bye now." into the original project, it still displayed "Hello World!" in the resulting Command Prompt.

                                      Try to get your updated code to affect what's shown in the Command Prompt without making a separate project. If you are able to do this, you will save yourself lots of time in future exercises or projects.

                                      After you edit the code in your original project, remember to save your changes, then rebuild and re-run your program.

                                      That's what I did originally, and unfortunately the resulting text in the command prompt didn't change, it still said "Hello World!".

                                      To clarify: Did you close the original Command Prompt window before editing, saving, rebuilding, and rerunning your program?

                                      Yes.

                                        I have Teamviewer, if you'd like to access it that way. Would you want my phone number for that method?

                                          Would I put "Hi Annabelle!", in the spot of code where it would usually say "Hello World"? I'm confused!

                                          Be adventurous and give it a try!

                                          I ended up having to make a separate project, as when I put "Hi Annabelle!" and "Bye now." into the original project, it still displayed "Hello World!" in the resulting Command Prompt.

                                          Annabelle, if you think about this logically that cannot be the right approach. You don't/must not have to create a new project in order to alter something like the output from a piece of code you have already written.

                                          Why don't you go back now to the original project and have a stab at making the edits again? If that still produces the wrong output as you said, paste the code and we'll have a look at it.
