Geting keys ASCII numbers?

[Novice]

What is the easiest way to get a number from the ASCII table when you press a key, for ex. i press A and get 65 in my varibale, i press B and get 66... TIA

Ok i figured it out.Sorry bout that.

Code: Select all

int lastKey = getLastKey();

But now my problem is that it dosent recognise letters when shift is pressed, so if i press "a" or "A" either way i get 97 (a). How can i make it recognise capital letters?

You need test if the shift or caps lock is pressed.
