Thread: SDL multiple key presses...Help.

Hello there. My current game project will be done is SDL using MS Visual C++ 6.0. I am integrating ASM into some of the code for faster speed. Anyhow, I was wondering if SDL can handle more than one key being pressed at a time. I was going to make the game a 2-player game, so I would like to know. If so, can I just do this:

Code:

if (event.key.keysym.sym == SDLK_LEFT) { 
    // Move player 1
    //

}

if (event.key.keysym.sym == SDLK_W) { 
    // Move player 2
    //

}

or does the second one need to be an "else if"?
