I want to enter say "1" without having to press enter after typing "1". I don't mean x=getchar(); because after typing "1" the flow stops. Is there a way to also implicitly get carriage return stuck to the x?

It's possible, but there's no standard way of doing this.

It can be done via information re which key was pressed.
I want to continue with "writeBill" after pressing "1", however the "1" in the buffer stops this from happening. How can I do this?
Code:if (kbhit) { switch(getche()) { case '1': writeBill(); break; case '2': retrieve(); break; // . . . . } }
Code:while ( 1 ) { if (kbhit) { what = getche(); } switch(what) { case '1': writeBill(); break; case '2': retrieve(); break; // . . . . } // maybe sleep() }
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.
Yes!! I had done it another way (did a dummy print). But got a bug. Was looking for it in the wrong place. Found it.
Thank you for your bedtime wishes.
