C++ help? prints sum of first and last numbers, second and next to last numbers and so on?

Question

Write a program that creates an array with these numbers:{ 28, 72, 33, 67, 90, 10, 16, 84, 45, 55 }.Then print the sum of the first and last numbers, then the sum of the next pair (second and next-to-last), continuing until the sum of the middle two numbers is printed.
Here's my program:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
	const int SIZE = 10;
	int i = 0, j = (SIZE - 1);
	int numbers[SIZE] = {28, 72, 33, 67, 90, 10, 16, 84, 45, 55};

while (i < j)
	{
		cout << (numbers[i] + numbers[j]) << endl;
		i++;
		j--;
	}

system("pause");
	return 0;
}

Whats wrong?

The system command is prototyped in cstdlib. So try this and it should work ...

#include <iostream>

#include <cstdlib>

using namespace std;

int main ()

{

const int SIZE = 10;

int i = 0, j = (SIZE - 1);

int numbers[SIZE] = {28, 72, 33, 67, 90, 10, 16, 84, 45, 55};

while (i < j) {

cout << (numbers[i] + numbers[j]) << endl;

i++;

j--;

}

system("pause");

return 0;

}

Works just fine for me. I'm using Visual Studio Express 2013.

The only thing I see that would cause issues is the system call.  If it's giving an error, comment it out by changing
system("pause");
to
// system("pause");

Then save, compile, and run it again.
