what should be the difference between these getch(), getchar() and getche. if possible give me an example

Welcome to TSDN.
Did you go through a test for these three functions?

Ok.
Let me explain.

getch() : It reads a character and never wait for Enter key.Just gets processed after getting any key pressed.And it never echoes the character on screen which u pressed.

getche() : it works same as getch() but it echoes on screen.

getchar() : It works differently from others two. Whenever you are pressing any key then the these are kept in Buffer. After hitting enter the first character gets processed. And it obviously echoes on the screen.

I think you got my point.
And if you still not went through it then go through it and see the magic.
Best of Luck.

Kind regards,
Dmjpro.

getch() and getche()

by: James McLaughlin | last post by:

Hi, Does anyone know if it's possible to write either a getch() (preferably Borland-style) or getche() function in C without it being platform-dependent or otherwise non-standard? If not, can someone suggest a good alternative for situations where you require the user to "press any key to continue" or "press Enter to continue" - with getch(), the mistakes that a user can make with getchar() and the like just don't occur.

Problem With Comparison Operator <=> in G++

by: Oralloy | last post by:

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

by: Hystou | last post by:

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
