The joypad() function reads the current status of the joypad. It does not block the current thread of control. The joypad status returned by the function uses one bit for each button, according to the definitions given above.
The waitpad() function waits for any button from a given mask to be pushed. The waitpadup() function waits for all buttons to be released.
mask: set of buttons to wait for.
The joypad() and \waitpadup() functions return the joypad status.
