Scan for input, and break; when you get some.

In the loop checking for input, set up a counter with clock() and check if it's been two or so seconds, in the loops condition.

Well i think may be i didn't explained my question clearly
Here it goes again
I need a command or function for which user gets only 2 secs to input a value if he doesn't input any thing in that 2 secs the program proceeds.. In actual the problem is when we want an input form user the execution pauses until or unless the user press any thing from keyboard. But what i need is that program only stops for 2 secs if no one inputs any thing than the program move forward......

Spawn a thread to count two seconds, after that make your tread force '\n' into the keyboard buffer and there you go

We don't give code. We give help. You give code.

I usually press Ctrl-C which stops a program for my operating system.

C/C++ by definition cannot scan for a single character and continue. Some compilers have added extensions that can do it, but it's rare.

And never post annoying things in your questions, like the green text and everything after it. It actually makes people want to skip your post.
