simple question -getch \n and \r

When i do this

Code:

while( user_char != '\n'){
  /*do some stuff*/
  }

my program wont go out the loop when pressing the Enter key, wich results in a \n character , although that is with fgets.

but when i do this.

Code:

while( user_char != '\r'){
  /*do some stuff---notice the r*/
  }

It works perfect now it goes out the loop when pressing the Enter key.

Any logic explanation behind this?

Well i guess you make these stupid mistakes when you dont have a book or dont take any classes in programming....
But im pretty sure i wont forget this one, this made me check my code for hours and then finally i found it.

Thx Salem, you've helped me out
