This is for the numerous people I see constantly asking how to "pause" the console after their code runs. The explanation for how the code works is within the snippet in comments. Basically, the "cin.clear();" function will clear the input stream, getting rid of any newline characters that would have made methods like using the "cin.get();" function to pause the console not work. Then, we have the "cin.ignore();" function. This will ignore the maximum amount of characters that can be entered into the stream (numeric_limits::max) be ignored, or wait for a newline character ( \n ). This way, the console will be "paused" until you enter a newline character (or the max. amount of characters for the input stream, but that would take forever and be unnecessary.) I hope this helps all of you C++ beginners who are either learning for yourselves or just getting started in a college course.
