How do you clear the screen

[ginzobro]

So i'm new to C++, i took a class on it and now i'm taking another one so i can also learn to use GUI and such but this second class is in BASIC. I figured to challange myself i would take the projects at the end of every lesson and transfer them into C++ so i can take the class and still learn it through C++. Now for the real question... One of the projects requires me to clear the screen using the keyword "cls" does anybody know what i would have to type to do the same thing for C++?

System("cls") :)

Now if you want to have safe and efficient code, http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/beginner/1988/3/#msg10830

Might seem a little more complicated, but you can read the whole thread if need more info
