python取消input_Linux：python：在raw_input（）之前清除输入缓冲区

I have looked at a few thread about this, but it doesn't seem to solve my problem.

I am running linux and when I use raw_input(), with a pause between each, it will take the data that I have pressed before, here is an example :

import time

a = raw_input("first input")

b = raw_input("second input")

time.sleep(5)

#flush junk?

a = raw_input("third input")

b = raw_input("fourth input")

if I press any keys followed by the enter during the 5 seconds, the two other raw input will take the input. I would like to be able to flush the data and let the user be prompted.

thank you.

For unix you can use termios.tcflush

from termios import tcflush, TCIFLUSH

import time,sys

a = raw_input("first input ")

b = raw_input("second input ")

time.sleep(5)

tcflush(sys.stdin, TCIFLUSH)

a = raw_input("third input ")

b = raw_input("fourth input ")

~$ python foo.py

first input 1

second input 2

33

33

third input 3

fourth input 4

termios.tcflush(fd, queue)

Discard queued data on file descriptor fd. The queue selector specifies which queue: TCIFLUSH for the input queue, TCOFLUSH for the output queue, or TCIOFLUSH for both queues.
