Decimal Value for Return

[Guest_imported]

What is the decimal value for return? I need to know this because I am trying to make an if statement that determines if the text goes to a new line. Thanks.

Hi!

The decimal value of the line-feed character is 10. However, advanced programmers more commonly check for the hexadecimal value (0x0a). For a more detailed discussion/example, please see thread205-236269.

Hope that helps! ;-)

The decimal value for the RETURN or ENTER key is 13.

In C a new line can be char '\n' which in text mode is a line feed and a cariage return so a 10 and a 13.

'\r' is a cariage return (without a line feed).
