  getch();
  return 0;
  }


It threw 2 errors..
1. clrscr() undeclared (first use this function)
2. (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it appears in.)

It worked in turbo c++..
In code blocks,it failed...
why????
please help me in correcting the code.......

clrscr is not part of the C++ standard. This means that the function is not guaranteed to come with your compiler (and indeed, you should assume it doesn't). Turbo C++ is a very old compiler that came with a lot of non-standard things (in fact, it's so old that back then there was no standard).

Now that you are using a more modern compiler (well, I assume you are - the Code::Blocks IDE usually comes with a pretty recent compiler) you will have to use standard C++.

If you insist on clearing the console, pick something out of this article:

#include<stdio.h>

#include<conio.h>


Please don't ever ever use any of these headers in C++ (or at least until you know what you're doing and have a really good reason to). The first one has been replaced with cstdio, the second one with cstring (and frankly, since this is C++, you shouldn't be using C-strings unless you have to, and you don't have to for this), and conio.h is horribly non-standard and this code will not work at all on many modern systems.

printf? No thank you. This is C++. Use #include <iostream> and cout.

gets? Similarly horribly and very dangerous. Use cin.

Whatever you're using to learn C++. please stop. Throw it away. Find something from the last decade.

Don't call clrscr.

It needs the #include <iostream> ....

It needs the proper use of namespace std....
