Thread: anyone knows what's wrong?!?!?

On what were you thinking when you made that poll? Where you thinking at all?

Strange Person?

Hmm...the answer is Cobol....

Seriously....your code is ok...it must be your implementation...

Code:

#include <windows.h>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

void location(int x, int y)
{
HANDLE OutputH; 
COORD position = {x, y}; 
OutputH = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);
SetConsoleCursorPosition(OutputH, position);
}

int main(void)
{
    location(10,5);
    cout << "Hello world";
return 0;
}

My guess is that you might be confusing the position as being relevant to pixels, when in fact the function relates to char position......if you put location(100,500); for instance, the function will fail...
