#include <iostream> using namespace std; int main() { cout <<"hello world"; return 0; } This is the correct code

code provided by Atul (and following Aysha answer) correctly run: https://code.sololearn.com/cmoPF3NWRAt1/?ref=app Are you sure to write your code at the right place? (code playground could be configured for many languages, but doesn't try to detect them for you)...

If you are on Windows, better to use an IDE.
