Keyboard input/Obtain a Y or N response

Keyboard input/Obtain a Y or N response
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

Obtain a valid Y or N response from the keyboard. The keyboard should be flushed, so that any outstanding keypresses are removed, preventing any existing Y or N keypress from being evaluated. The response should be obtained as soon as Y or N are pressed, and there should be no need to press an enter key.
