rxbertx:
is it possible to read the ascii value of the key that's pressed without having to do it trough the serial monitor?i believe it's getch() or something but since i can't find a way to include conio.h to arduino i don't know what to do :?
You can't use conio.h on an Arduino because it does not come with a console terminal.
Before you can read an ascii value from a keyboard key press you have to specify what the keyboard is connected to and where the ascii value will be displayed.
