There is no 'next screen' in a console application. What is wrong with your current program?

To see another console you have to launch a new process.

Learn to write code that make sense. For example, your sum function should look like:


int sum(int a, int b) 
{
    return a + b;
}

All the other extra stuff is either useless or bad.

Even if the code works, you should still write simple and readable code. Your code has way too much noise that only make it less clear.

Solution 2

After seeing your comments I understand that you are talking about clearing the console before printing the output. Pass clear screen command to your console.

C++

case 2:
system("cls");
c = subt(a, b);
cout << "Subtraction Results= " << c << endl;
break;

Solution 1

You have only one screen for output, so you need to write it all on one screen.

Teh common way (in every output as printing or drawing) is to compute the coordinates where every character (or drawing element) of output and draw it there. Here you can adding blank spaces or tabs, where needed.

Take also a look at this article and this one.
