A better alternative to system("pause")

Code:

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

void wait()
{
    cout<<"\nPress Enter to continue.\n";
    cout<<">";//just to let the user know he needs to type something
    cin.ignore(1);//gets 1 character input and ignores it.
}



Code:

cin.get();

That's the portion of users we call "retarded".
