In C++, i could use cin.ignore() to get a keystroke from user before program continues.
What is the equivalence of cin.ignore() in python?

@P0W: `raw_input()` does not return until
is pressed. – Steven Rumbalski Oct 10 '13 at 17:29 -

You could simply do:
raw_input("Press enter to exit...") # use input() if using Python 3.x
This only works with pressing Enter, however (the user could type in a bunch of letters but only pressing Enter at the end).
