Sb: #scanf() question

How do you all handle this?

  scanf( "%d",num);
  gets( "%s", string);

Seems what happens, scanf gets the number, but leaves the carriage return
buffered, and on a subsequent gets(), or any other string call.. it
retrieves the newline.  The only remedy I could come up with is to follow
each scanf() with a getchar().  It works, but doesn't seem very elegant.

Any "elegant" solutions?
