hi guys
I need to run some operation if a key from keyboard is pressed
so I go with
to get it read. yet the user could press a key anytime; so I'd need some if-loop. no plans on how it'd look like though...I suppose something like this below wouldn't work right?Code:c=getchar();
Code:if(getchar()==1){ .. }
any hints? thanks
Checking to see whether there is any key requires some OS/Compiler specific coding.

You need to tell us your OS/Compiler if you want specific details.
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

ikr? yet not sure what OS has to do with it....I use Windows 7
Standard C doesn't provide that information. You need to use OS specific functions.
