How do you display characters starting in a set position?

[Guest_imported]

I taught myself to use TI-BASIC, the primary programming language of the TI series of graphing calculators.

But now I'm taking a C++ class and I'm wondering what the equivalent of the Output command is.

For those of you who aren't familiar with TI-BASIC, the output command allows you to display a character or string of characters starting in a certain position. It allows text-based animation.

Anyone have a clue what I'm talking about?

Eep. I accidentally posted this in the Borland forum. I use Microsoft Visual v6.0 (but I only have 4.0 at home

)

I assume you r making a console program.
You can move the cursor with
SetConsoleCursorPosition(), then just write there with
WriteConsole().
Check MSDN documentation for further information.
