A doubt about getch() function

I just have a doubt about the usage of getch(); in a simple program to print a text. When I am giving the code as https://code.sololearn.com/cb3N8vMDnqr4/?ref=app I m not getting o/p in o/p console. And, when I am using a getch(); I am able to see the o/p like in the code https://code.sololearn.com/cbJh6s8ozUNg/?ref=app . Also, when the return type of the main() is int AND only if I use a getch() I am able to see the o/p like in the code https://code.sololearn.com/cKa3zVBSDtXS/?ref=app. Can u help me with this Guys. Thanks in advance

use getchar(); instead of getch(); and write printf line after getchar();

Mayank Dhillon I tried it, after inputting a character, the control is coming back from o/p console to editor. I am using Turbo C by the way.

You want to print the line after entering the character right? #include <stdio.h> int main() { printf("Hi"); getch(); return 0; } I used this one in sololearns compiler and it worked fine for me as intended, can't say about turboC because I mostly use CodeBlocks for C.
