How to read a key pressed by the user and display it on the console?

Question

I am trying to ask user "enter any key" and when that key is pressed it shows that "You Pressed 'Key'". Can you help what's wrong in this code?

This is what I have written:

using System;
class Program
{
    public static void Main(string[] args)
    {      
        Console.Write("Enter any Key: ");
        char name = Console.Read();
        Console.WriteLine("You pressed {0}", name);
    }
}

Answer 1

Try

Console.WriteLine("Enter any Key: ");
ConsoleKeyInfo name = Console.ReadKey();
Console.WriteLine("You pressed {0}", name.KeyChar);
