You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

PowerShell

The following uses the special $Host variable which points to an instance of the PowerShell host application. Since the host's capabilities may vary this may not wok in all PowerShell hosts. In particular, this works in the console host, but not in the PowerShell ISE. <lang powershell>while ($Host.UI.RawUI.KeyAvailable) {

   $Host.UI.RawUI.ReadKey() | Out-Null

}</lang>
