TRANSCRIPT

There are many ways in which a user can interact with your program from pressing buttons, to opening and closing windows, and even simple events like moving a mouse. Each of these interactions triggers an event which we capture within the run loop and can either choose to handle or ignore. We could spend hours covering just events but we are only really interested in three for now: closing the window, clicking a mouse button, and pressing a keyboard key, specifically, the space bar. To handle any event, we first need to create an sf::Event object and call the function window.pollEvent(). This gathers all of the events associated with a specific window (as you can have multiple windows open at once) and will continue to return true while there are events ongoing.
