As far as I know, gotoxy() is a standard C function defined in <conio.h>, but it may not work in ANSI C compilers such as Dev-C++.  Anyways, gotoxy() function is actually used to print strings at different parts of the console by specifying the console coordinates to alter the console cursor. The full syntax of gotoxy() is: gotoxy(int, int), where two int values correspond to x and y (coordinates). e.g. gotoxy(5, 3); cout << "Hello World"; // prints "Hello World" at coordinate (5, 3)
