Clearing the screen in a C++ console program.

Hello all,

This is my first time posting here. My question, I'm guessing, is a relatively easy one to answer.

I've recently just gotten back into C++ and am starting at the beginning again with console programming. I decided to make a cribbage game since it is one of my favorites.

However, I am having a slight problem. I can't remember what function you use to clear the screen of all text. I've searched around a bit and didn't find anything to help me...either that, or I'm blind. Either way, I can't figure it out.

I hope this is an easy one to answer...it would help me out a ton.

Thanks in advance....
