Ok so i was reading in my C++ book today and i got to a small program that was using the ignore() function. I have used it before but it was about a year ago and i was learning PHP between so i can't remember how to use it.
The program looks like this http://code.suck-o.com/12
The book says that without "cin.ignore(10, '\n')", at least one return sign would be left in the buffert. And my question is, what does it matter if it's left in the buffert? Would it affect the return c; ? or what ?

Hmmm I never heard of ignore... so I never used it 
Annd the the time I did menu or Yes/No interface, I've always use char with most of the time conio.h for the getch function(you doesn't need to press enter for the program to take your char...)
So I would say that you override the buffer each time you get in your loop...
