Does one have to use curses to read single characters from keyboard?

[Chris Nyland]

You should try the input function. I use it all the time. It does require
the user to hit enter but that is pretty typical of that kind of interface.
So I would write a loop like

while True:
   answer = input("Please answer the question (y/n):")
  if answer == 'y':
    break
