Abstract
A method differentiates simultaneous and sequential key strokes by detecting simultaneous key strokes if two keys are pushed within a judging time T.sub.L. The method includes the steps of (a) measuring a first time T.sub.1 from a time when a first key is pushed to a time when a second key is pushed, and a second time T.sub.2 from the time when the second key is pushed to a time when one of the first and second keys is released, (b) comparing the first and second times T.sub.1 and T.sub.2 with an arbitrary threshold function T.sub.C which is set within the judging time T.sub.L, and (c) differentiating whether key strokes of the first and second keys are simultaneous or sequential based on a comparison result of the step (b).
