Hi everyone,
I have encountered a problem while running a program which do sleep
before prompting for input.
All the input characters that are entered during this time are not
entered into the input buffer so it is as I didn't enter them at all.
I have this small code which illustrates this problem.
This problem doesn't happen neither on UNIX nor on MSVC.
P.S. Instead of doing sleep I entered a big loop and it acted the same.
Any ideas ?
Thanks,
#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
char st1[100];
unsigned long i;
printf("Type something !\n");
for (i=0;i<50000000;i++);
scanf("%s",st1);
printf("You typed: %s\n",st1);
}
