Re: [Dev-C++] Getch()? How???

[Brian M. <str...@ho...>]

To use getch() properly, you must have cout << endl; be the last statement 
you make before using getch().  Otherwise it will either wait for an 
endline, or it will output everything after the last
cout << endl; statement AFTER the user presses a key.

Ex:

void main() {
    cout << "Daniel" << endl;
    getch();
}

displays "Daniel", advances to next line, then waits for user to strike a 
key.


void main() {
    cout << "Daniel";
    getch();
}

presents user with a blank console and waits for user to press any key 
before displaying "Daniel".


void main() {
    cout << "Daniel" << endl << "Bob";
    getch();
}

displays "Daniel", advances to next line, waits for user to press a key, 
then displays "Bob" (does not display the character pressed by the user).
