To read the statement in a complex eval statement, you must either decipher the code within the statement or run the code in the browser. The output is the JavaScript code in the browser source code. Reading the eval statement in the browser makes it more convenient to decipher complex statements.
The saying "truth is stranger than fiction" sometimes applies to literary works. Determining if a book is fiction or nonfiction can sometimes prove difficult. Some books are labeled as fiction, while other books are labeled as nonfiction. When these labels do not appear clearly on the book, evaluate the content of the book and determine if it is fiction or nonfiction. Evaluate the two literary genres through a combination of common sense and research.
When a Java user presses a keyboard key, Java knows the key's value. Your Java application or applet may need to know that value as well to function correctly. Java games, for example, often rely on keyboard input to control the action. Business applications might allow users to perform complex tasks using shortcut keys. Java has a built-in method that makes all keystroke values available to you. Your Java program simply needs to read those values and react accordingly.
