getch() is actually used to read a single byte character from keyboard input without needing to press ENTER key. In past programs, getch() has been used to hold program execution (pause screen until a key is hit), but the function is now obsolete. Use getchar() instead. I think VS still supports getch(), but you have to do _getch() instead. E.g. int ASCII_num; ASCII_num = _getch(); std::cout << ASCII_num;
