hi all,
recently i started coding in C language (my specialty is c# and php and i am new to c commands).
Im looking for some functions to clear screen from line 'x' up to end of screen and i just find
C++
system( "cls" );
that do my propose but from first line up to end (whole of screen).
so any recommended solution acceptable and thanks in advance.. ;)

-regards

See http://www.robvanderwoude.com/ansi.php[^] for the escape sequences that you can try. However, you may find it better to work on a simple Windows application where you have better control of the screen.

Im forced to use console and c both!!
Ansi is my last choice so i wait for other answers but thanks for your solution.

Then using the ANSI sequences is the only way you can do it.

i saw a solution that they use move(x,y) and then clrtoeol() and then back to first x y position.. i test it but didn't worked..

That is using the old MSDOS graphics library that has been out of date for years. I am not sure why you are having to work with such old technology, when Windows is the obvious choice.

this is a competition that we must use and research on old technology..
