So, you can use
system("CLS"); to clear screen, but that's OS specific.
So it's better to write a user-defined func like :
Code: C
void ClearScreen
(void)</p>
<p>
{</p>
<p> HANDLE hStdout = GetStdHandle
(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE
);</p>
<p> CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO csbi;</p>
<p> GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo
(hStdout,&csbi
);</p>
<p>
const COORD startCoords =
{0,
0};</p>
<p> DWORD dummy;</p>
<p> </p>
<p> FillConsoleOutputCharacter
(hStdout,
' ',csbi.
dwSize.
X * csbi.
dwSize.
Y,startCoords,&dummy
);</p>
<p> SetConsoleCursorPosition
(hStdout, startCoords
);</p>
<p>
}</p>
<p>
Remember to
#include <windows.h>.
excuse me but it's not working and has a error like this:
error C2601: 'ClearScreen' : local function definitions are illegal
