question about this function clrscr()

[tremain74]

I went on a website called cppprojectcode.blogspot.com. I tried to look up the function clrscr(). Does this function exist in C++? I have part of the project example below:

class Dhaka

private:

char name[50];
int rain;
int humidity;

char kind[50];

public:

void show()
{
clrscr();
cout<<"Name : Dhaka.";
cout<<"\nSoil colour : Red.";
cout<<"\nRain : Near30-50%";
cout<<"\nHumidity : Near20-40%";
cout<<"\nsoilkind : Normal";
}
};

void Dhaka::get(char *n,char *a,char *g)
{
strcpy(name,n);
strcpy(soil,a);
strcpy(kind,g);
cout<<"Enter rain:";
cin>>rain;
cout<<"Enter humidity:";
cin>>humidity;

cout<<"\n\nArea name : "<<name
<<"\nSoil colour : "<<soil
<<"\nSoil kind : "<<kind
<<"\nRain fall : "<<rain

if (rain<30 || humidity<20)
cout<<"\n\nThe area is near Tangail.";
else if (rain>=30 && rain<35 || humidity>=20 && humidity<25)

First off, please put your code inside code tags.

The clrscr() function would have been a custom written function, something like this..

void clrscr( )
{
 system("cls");
}

[Chervil]

clrscr() is part of the <conio.h> header.

Unfortunately, <conio.h> is not a part of standard C++. it may not be available at all, or where it is available, you may find the available functions vary from one compiler to another.

@ Chervil Oh yes, I remember it being in Borland C++ (or Turbo C I think) many moons ago, forgot about that.
