c program hide console window

To hide the console window in a C program, you can use the WinAPI function ShowWindow along with the GetConsoleWindow function. Here's an example:

#include <windows.h>

int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nCmdShow) {
    HWND hWnd = GetConsoleWindow();
    ShowWindow(hWnd, SW_HIDE);

    // Your program logic goes here

    return 0;
}

This code uses the GetConsoleWindow function to retrieve the handle to the console window, and then the ShowWindow function is used to hide the window using the SW_HIDE parameter. This allows your program to run without displaying the console window.

Please note that this code is specifically for Windows and uses the WinAPI. If you are targeting a different operating system or using a different development environment, the approach may be different.
