Hey there everyone, can any of you guys tell me a way to read input from the keyboard without waiting for the keypress? What I mean is, I don't want the program to wait around all day for the user to hit a key. The program should continue doing other stuff, but when a key is pressed the program should detect it. Ideas, anyone?
Have a productive day, guys.
Your program could be doing things within a loop. One of the elements of the loop is checking for a key press. What does your programme do? OS?
Demonographic rhinology is not the only possible outcome, but why take the chance
Something more like a task scheduler maybe. It has several little subprograms, and it's supposed to switch between the tasks. How would I check for the keypress inside the loop without waiting for it?
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.
Aw, rats! I was hoping for a platform-inspecific way of doing it. Drat...
Thanks anyway, guys.
