Matrix Keypad and Menu system to get variables

Projects General Guidance
1

Hi,

I am designing a temperature controller for which set point(s) need to be obtained by user interface using Matrix Keypad.

There are many variables to be taken from user interface like set points + time delays etc therefore a menu system would be required.

I have searched on internet but could not find a code which could be guidance for me that how should I develop menu and take variable inputs from user using keypad interface.

I have developed some projects earlier therefore have little knowledge of programming.

I found the end of the Internet last night, your are right, it's not that big.

Look in the Playground area on this site, you might find some menu examples to try there.
I think there are some libraries offered here also.

EDIT
I have not used this but here is an offering I found in the Playground.

Write some code, try things out, then show what you have here.
You might want to look at state machine examples.
