As I stated in my other post Borland C++ Builder places some default code in the editor window when you start a new console project. I was wondering if Microsoft's Visual C++.NET does the same thing, place a few lines of default code in the editor window? If it does does it explain what it is in the help files?

Another question I have is I noticed on one site about how to write a console program with Visual C++.NET it said this in the code window:

std:: cout << "Hello World" << std::endl;

Now this std:: I've never seen before as it's not mentioned in C++ books. Is this something peculiar to Visual C++.NET? Why is it there? Does the help files talk about it?
