Pygame knowing when shift+other key is pressed

Question

Answer 1

If you look at the events for 'a' and 'A' while both have the key 97, you can use either the unicode (if strictly printable characters) or mod attribute to tell the difference.

Note: the mod is different for shift and caps lock characters event though the unicode will be the same.
