you need an input statement inside your while loop.
Take the break statement out, it was an infinite loop because score can never = -999 because score never changes inside the loop. |

You could generate valid c++ code that does a few couts to display the text and then output that to a text file and use system() with a command line compiler to compile it into an exe. |

Its because the path to your desktop has spaces in it, while the path to your compiled folder does not.
Easy to fix:
