Input Problem in C

Following is a program that was given to my juniors in the C-Debugging finals. It was quite surprising that no one solved it, in an efficient manner!

Only Vivek and Sathish from third year did some justice to the program!

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
int x;
char c,h;
clrscr();
printf("\n Enter a character:");
scanf("%c", &c);
printf(" The first character entered was:%c",c);
printf("\n Enter another character:");
scanf("%c",&h);
printf("\n The second character entered was:%c",h);
getch();
}

Solution:

#include<stdio.h>
void main()
{
int x;
char c,h;
clrscr();
printf("\n Enter a character:");
scanf("%c", &c);
fflush(stdin);
printf(" The first character entered was:%c",c);
printf("\n Enter another character:");
scanf("%c",&h);
printf("\n The second character entered was:%c",h);
getch();
}

Explanation:

stdin, gets the character and the enter as another character and it is set to h.
So h is not input at all!

fflush is an interesting function which flushes the unwanted content from the stream!

In java too we face this problem, I will get back to that in my tutorial!
