    Making the Consle wait for whitespace

    I need to make my console program wait until the user hits the space bar, is that simple, like a one liner?
    If not maybe some wait to make it wait for anykey but not need a return char. or maybe JUST a return char. Any ideas? I want this to be simple!

    Thanks!

    You can use:
    Code:
    char x; cin.get(x);
    ...or, more non-standardly:
    Code:
    #include <conio.h>
    
    void somecode() {
        getch();
    }
