system("PAUSE") or not system("PAUSE")

Question

Should we use it?, why?

Answer 1

You shouldn't, because you have the getchar() alternative, which is standard and does what you want without system() calls.

Answer 2

sometimes u have to wait for user to read content Ur displaying so we use pause syntax. but keep in mind that this will not work with Linux. idk about Mac.

Answer 3

Yes, I use Linux. I also think that the better is to use an alternative. getchar() works, but when I tried it, I have to double it, couse the buffer was full.

getchar();
getchat();

Answer 4

I had used getchar () once in my program before that getchar syntax I used fgets ()
and it skipped getchar() :/
