Could you point the reason the second scanf doesn't work ?

scanf("%c",opcao_char);

printf("you said %c, right? Now i need you to put a number 0-9",opcao_char[0]);
scanf("%c",&opcao_numer[0]);

opcao_conver=atoi(opcao_numer);

if( (opcao_char[0]=='y' || opcao_char[0]=='Y')&& (opcao_conver==8) )

Unfortunatelly after the changes you gived me the second scanf has no effect...

#include <stdio.h> 
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <cstdio>

int main(int argc, char** argv) 
{

int opcao_conver;

char opcao_char[1],opcao_numer[1];

printf("do you want to your computer explode now?\n");
printf("Y/N?\n");
scanf("%c",opcao_char);

printf("you said %c, right? Now i need you to put a number 0-9",opcao_char[0]);
scanf("%c",&opcao_numer[0]);

opcao_conver=atoi(opcao_numer);

if( (opcao_char[0]=='y' || opcao_char[0]=='Y')&& (opcao_conver==8) )
{
	printf("your computer will explode in, 5,4,3,2,1\n");
	printf("BOOM");
	
}
else
{
	printf("You are good,FOR NOW!\n");
}
	return 0;
}

The second scanf will read the next character after the character read by the first scanf.
If you typed a newline character after you the character that the first scanf read, the second scanf will read that newline character.

Try entering
Y8<newline>
after the Y/N? prompt.

This way runs ok....

#include <stdio.h> 
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <cstdio>

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char** argv) 
{

int opcao_conver;

char opcao_char[1],opcao_numer[1], opcao_aux[1];

printf("do you want to your computer explode now?\n");
printf("Y/N?\n");

//cout <<  endl; 

scanf("%c",&opcao_char);

scanf("%c",opcao_aux);

printf("you said %c, right? Now i need you to put a number 0-9",opcao_char[0]);
scanf("%c",&opcao_numer[0]);

//cout <<  endl; 

opcao_conver=atoi(opcao_numer);

printf("number you said %i, ",opcao_conver);

printf("Letra %c, ",opcao_char[0]);

if( (opcao_char[0]=='y' || opcao_char[0]=='Y')&& (opcao_conver==8) ) 
{
                printf("your computer will explode in, 5,4,3,2,1\n");
                printf("BOOM");
                
}
else
{
                printf("You are good,FOR NOW!\n");
}
                return 0;
}

%*[^\n]\n
is another way to skip to the end of the line

The proper way to deal with line based input, is to use fgets (http://en.cppreference.com/w/c/io/fgets) to read a line of input into a buffer, and then get whatever you need out of that buffer (using sscanf (http://en.cppreference.com/w/c/io/sscanf) eg.).

Don't manually try to skip newline characters the way you did, because you're only ignoring the problem that way, and it'll come back to bite you later on (when a line break actually consists of two characters \r\n eg.).
