    value of enter key

    i'm having a hard time finding info on this, so i'll just ask quickly. in a char array, i'm looking for a particular letter. if the letter were "c", my program would be as follows

    Code:
    char example[15];
    if (example[12] == 'c') {
    // do stuff
    }
    however, i'm not looking for c, i'm looking for the enter key. what is it's value in a char array?

    If you make a man a fire,

    The <Enter> key is '\n'. Note the double = symbol is boolean.

    if (example[12] == '\n') {
