      • In TASM I would simply check the BIOS Shift Flags and Extended Shift Flags. There are an LShiftKey And RShiftKey, but Control.Keys only returns the "BIOS Shift Flags" without the Extended Shift Flags. I would like it if my program could keep all its functionality as I "translate" it from assembly. Thanks.

      • This quote is from the book C#: The Complete Reference. the methods of a class typically manipulate and provide access to the data of the class. With this in mind, recall that Main( ) in the preceding examples computed the area-per-person by dividing the total area by the number of occupants. While technically correct, this is not the best way to handle this computation.
