Console clear screen

[ihato]

How to clear the screen of the console?

I tryed system("CLS") but console "sparkles".

And I tryed cout<<"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n" but then the text is drawn weirdly.

How to clear the screen perfectly?

What system are you on? Sounds like it's not Windows.

Its Windows XP 5.1.2600
