The shift key has no ascii value. You`ll have to grab the scan
codes of the make/break of the shift key.

how to get the ascii value of shift key in C

tht is very easy..

u declare a character variable and store the keyboard entry to tht variable and thn PRINT it as INTEGER..

#include<stdio.h>#include<conio.h>

void main(){char c;

printf("enter the shift key
");fflush(stdin); //clear the keyboard bufferc=getch();

printf("ascii value is %d
",c); // this gives the ascii of the keyboard // key typed

}

ASCII describes characters visible on the screen. The `shift key` isn`t
a visible character so it doesn`t have one.
