How To Clear The Input Buffer | C++ Tutorial

thank you ! i finished the program and the get line function worked only for one time and i thought i had to start all over again but hey it is all that buffer thing ,so all i have to do is the ignore function just befor the get line to ensure that the buffer is empty right?

That's really so useful, thank you !

Instead of writing cin.ignore ig we can use a dummy getline also to clear the buffer like
cin>>number;
string temp;
getline(cin,temp); //dummy getline
char s[256];
//then take your input

Superb explanation

Hello!!! Nice video sir explainning a difficult concept like clear the buffer, but I have a qusetion, I'm using Netbeans for windows, and when I use the cin.ignore(1,'\n'), my program can delete 1 skip even if I just put 1 for ignore the '\n'. I whant to know if thi is because we areusing differents IDE's or it's because something else.

numeric_limits<streamsize>::max()

das goated, thanks g

Awesome explanation as usual. Thank you, Sir. Please, make more videos on interesting topics in C++

Nice explanation!

There is another solution that's a bit easier. You can do the following instead:
number = _getch();
include the <conio.h> library.


But thanks for the info. I didn't know you could this it like this too.

Nice explanation

I love how you make each and every video stand on its own feet, in the sense that the viewer has to never refer to a previous video to get hold of the topic being taught. Thank you for going the extra mile making each tutorial self-reliant!

Thanks again👌

Great video Sir. Your channel really helps me a lot in learning programming especially c++. But I have one question sir. Do you have any resources on how I can deeply understand buffers in c++ and how it works?

Thanks it was helpful!

thank you sir

Thanks for this. On point, intelligent explanation.

Nice, clear and concise explanation
