Is this using curses or ncurses? What library is provided getch and kbhit?

Is this using curses or ncurses? What library is provided getch and kbhit?

using conio.h
stdlib.h for system()

kbhit() is in <conio.h> but u haven't used it here ..how are you able to execute it? when i am including <conio.h> , i am getting fatal error that no such directory exist .. please help

@heenahmed this is a DOS library... probably on the Windows... at the time...
