Why not just use curses? It's a lot easier to read.

#include <curses.h>

void clrscr()
{
initscr();
clear();
endwin();
}

If you don't care about platform independence, and just want to know the quick and dirty way to clear the screen, make a call to

system("clear");

at the point where you want the program to clear the screen.
