Thread: Overwriting last print statement in command line

Hi,

I would like to know how to print to the command line but overwriting the last line.
For example I want to print numbers 1 to 10 using a loop in a way that there is only one print statement to the command line and only the number changes as it loops from 1 to 10.

Kind of like a progress counter.

Thanks

You could use the backspace char ('\b') to erase the previous character on the line.

you could also clear screen if you want to do that.. however the command you use i believe will be OS-specific, ie: system("cls"); for windows
