keyboard keys (help)

[turing91]

How would you make a simple program where if you pressed the "d" key on the keyboard it says something like "You pressed the d key"

i know you can use

code:

var key : string (1) loop     getch (key)     if key = KEY_CTRL_D then         put "You pressed the 'd' key"     end if end loop

but how would you do it without pressing control?

There is actually two ways for keyboard input... but i think you understand what you are doing so ill just show you the code(s)

code:

/*   Same Method in Which You   Prescribed Above Using CTRL */ var key : string (1) loop     getch (key)     if key = 'd' then         put "You pressed the 'd' key"     end if end loop

code:

/*   This loops repeatedly, and check each loop whether   the character 'd' is being pressed, and if so, runs code. */ var chars : array char of boolean loop     Input.KeyDown (chars)     if chars ('d') then         put "You pressed the 'd' key"     end if     delay(10) end loop
