code issue with calling fuction

[nanukanu]

Hi,

This is my second question to the forum. In my last post, i got my 4x4 matrix keypad working correctly to show inputs on screen in one line. Now my next question is how can i post this keypad input on lcd. I have 16x2 lcd which i am able to use and display text i supply thru code. I need to merge these two in one so that i can capture input from keypad and then display it to the lcd. Please help me out. the codes are as below:-

Keypad code:-

Code: Select all

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO

combining your two bits of code but without attempting to test or look for errors etc, you could possibly use as a starter:

Code: Select all

import RPi.GPIO as GPIO
import time
import sys

GPIO.setmode (GPIO.BOARD)
