basic_istream& ignore(streamsize n = 1,
int_type delim = T::eof());
The unformatted input function extracts up to n
elements and discards them. If n
equals numeric_limits<int>::
max
()
, however, it is taken as arbitrarily large. Extraction stops early on end-of-file or on an element x
such that T::
to_int_type
(x)
compares equal to delim
(which is also extracted). The function returns *this
.
