C/C++ scanf/printf problem

I have been away from codeing for a few year and was never that good to begin with but the other day I came across a problem I desided to try to code a solution to.  However when I run scanf after printf the progeam wants the input first.  I have tried old programs that worked the last time I used them and found examples online such as the one pictured and the same thing happenes. I have used both cpp.sh and visual studio to compile with the same result.  Any ideas why this is or even better how to fix it?

Try using the line "fflush(stdin);" after the scanf, it clears the keyboard buffer and should solve your problem.

At least I think it should make it work.

Forget that, it's a problem with that website you use.

I once had one of these, now I've got this.
