Answer / beulah david

Both getch() and getche() are used to read single character
there is very little difference
For Example.....

getch();
}
after running the above program

when you press any key, you'll exit from output screen
verify the output by pressing alt+F5

will not show anything
OUTPUT : black screen(nothing is displayed)

2.
main()
{
getche();
}

will show the key you were pressed

any key from the keyboard after pressing it immediately goes
to blue screen)
