I am not sure about this, but I think conio.h is only for Windows os. Functions from conio.h are probably accessible from othes libraries, like cstdlib and cstdio. Please tell me someone if I am wrong and I will delete this answer.

Yeah, not only Windows, but the MS DOS before. This is a very oldie:) So, maybe the better answer is, the conio.h is used with the other, older functions to make richest input/output in C/C++. Here in course is (only) described the modern objective way with iostream library.
