A little help

jwroblewski (39)
So this is the beginning of a homework assignment using structures. as of right now, it does function. But when I repeat a Do loop, it requires an addition enter key to be pressed to start the loop. I'm not sure whats causing this, any help is appreciated.

Your program works fine without calling clearbuf() (and eliminating at the same time the ENTER issue).
Why do you want to use it anyway?
