C++ How check characters in real time with _getch()

Question

i need in my loop get character in realtime and check it by conditions. If user press whatever except enter, program works fine. Can anyone help me ? thanks !

   while (read != '\n')
            {
                cout << "Enter character:\n";
                read = _getwch();
                if (read == '\n') {
                    cout << "You pressed : ENTER\n";
                }
                else {
                    cout << "Your character is: \"" << read << "\"\n\n";
                    read = '\0';
                }
            }

And what exactly happens when you press ENTER? – zvone Dec 13 '14 at 15:15 — zvone, Dec 13 '14 at 15:15

include

using namespace std;

int main()

{

cout << "Press the ENTER key";

if (cin.get() == '\n')

{
       cout << "Good job.\n";
}
else
{
       cout << "I meant ONLY the ENTER key... Oh well.\n";
}

return 0;

}

This code will help in detecting the ENTER key when pressed. Hope this helps you.
