Thread: 2 problems

1) No, but this will work for you with MSVC++ 6

Code:

#include <windows.h>

void clrscr()
{
   COORD coordScreen = { 0, 0 };
   DWORD cCharsWritten;
   CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO csbi;
   DWORD dwConSize;
   HANDLE hConsole = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);

   GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo(hConsole, &csbi);
   dwConSize = csbi.dwSize.X * csbi.dwSize.Y;
   FillConsoleOutputCharacter(hConsole, TEXT(' '), dwConSize, coordScreen, &cCharsWritten);
   GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo(hConsole, &csbi);
   FillConsoleOutputAttribute(hConsole, csbi.wAttributes, dwConSize, coordScreen, &cCharsWritten);
   SetConsoleCursorPosition(hConsole, coordScreen);
}

2) It depends on the size of the array and whether or not efficiency is something you want. For most beginning programmers bubble sort is the easiest to work with, but should never be used for any real program. It might be a good idea to work with the qsort function in the standard library, or read up on the different methods of sorting. www.google.com
